NAME

       dialtest - HylaFAX dial string processing rules test program

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/dialtest [ options ] dialrules

DESCRIPTION

       dialtest  is  an interactive program for the testing and development of dial string processing rules used
       by HylaFAX.  dialtest reads the file of rules specified on the command line and then prompts for  a  dial
       string.   For each string typed in, dialtest prints the result of applying the canonicalization and dial-
       string  preparation  rule  sets.   A  rule  set  whose  name  is  setname  can  be  specified  by  typing
       ``setname(string)''; for example, ``CanonicalName(+1.415.965.7824)''.

       Note  that  dialtest reads the rules file only when it is initially started up.  This means that dialtest
       must be restarted for it to apply changes to a rules file.

OPTIONS

       -a code   Use code as the value of AreaCode in the rules file.  The default area code is ``415''.

       -c code   Use code as the value of CountryCode in the rules file.  The default country code is ``1''.

       -i prefix Use prefix as the value of InternationalPrefix in the rules file.   The  default  international
                 dialing prefix is ``011''.

       -l prefix Use  prefix  as  the  value of LongDistancePrefix in the rules file.  The default long distance
                 dialing prefix is ``1''.

       -q        Be quiet, suppressing most all output except for the actual results.  This is useful for  using
                 dialtest in an automated fashion.

       -v        Print  each  input  line before displaying the results of applying the dial string rules to the
                 input string.  This can be useful, for example, in shell scripts.
