There would be no way to test for vlaues. Why not call a script and pass parameters there. here is an example from rpt.conf. This is defined in the [functions] section. *A1 would call this and execute sayip.sh. 27225 is the passed parameter.<br><br>A1=cmd,/usr/local/sbin/sayip.sh 27225 <br><br>The in the sayip.sh script $1 is then defined as 27225. You can have multiple parameters so if it were -<br><br>A1=cmd,/usr/local/sbin/sayip.sh 1 2 3<br><br>Then in the script $1 would =1, $2 would = 2, and $3 would =3.<br><br>This yet again shows the power of using scripts over built-in code.<br><br></font><b><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4">73 Doug</font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4">WA3DSP</font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4">http://www.crompton.com/hamradio</font></b><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><br><br><div>> From: k8it@cac.net<br>> To: arm-allstar@hamvoip.org<br>> Date: Thu, 3 Sep 2015 19:00:20 -0400<br>> Subject: [arm-allstar] macro question<br>> <br>> using a macro say for example<br>> *52 which can call a bash script<br>> How can I pass say the next three DTMF digits to the script to be processed?<br>> For example if a user enters *52123 where 123 is three random dtmf digits <br>> how can I pass the 123 digits to the bash script?<br>> <br>> Thanks<br>> 73 Neil Sablatzky K8IT<br>> Allstar Node 41838 KITLINK<br>> Allstar Node 42087 KITLINK HUB<br>> IRLP Node exp0068<br>> Echolink K8IT-L<br>> WIRES-X K8IT 11479 Room 21479<br>> <br>> <br>> _______________________________________________<br>> <br>> arm-allstar mailing list<br>> arm-allstar@hamvoip.org<br>> http://lists.hamvoip.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/arm-allstar<br>> <br>> Visit the BBB and RPi2 web page - http://hamvoip.org<br>> <br></div> </div></body>
