[arm-allstar] wx_header

[Doug Crompton]

Tim,

   The top of the hour time and, if defined, weather text is in
/usr/local/sbin/saytime.pl   This is a perl script. If you understand
scripting you should be able to find the place in the file to insert the
text. An easier way if you just want a prefix or suffix to what saytime.pl
is voicing you could use the following to the crontab. saytime.pl is not a
protected script so if you change it you might want to call it something
else and change the name called in the crontab to match.

For a prefix -

00 0-23 * * * (source /usr/local/etc/allstar.env ; /usr/bin/asterisk -rx
"rpt localplay $NODE1 /etc/asterisk/local/prefix_message" ; /usr/bin/nice
-19 /usr/bin/perl /usr/local/sbin/saytime.pl ZIP $NODE1 > /dev/null)

For a suffix -

00 0-23 * * * (source /usr/local/etc/allstar.env ; usr/bin/nice -19
/usr/bin/perl /usr/local/sbin/saytime.pl ZIP $NODE1 > /dev/null) ; ;
/usr/bin/asterisk -rx "rpt localplay $NODE1
/etc/asterisk/local/suffix_message"

These are all on one line. Use crontab -e   to edit.
