ISDNCONF(1)		    Linux System Utilities		   ISDNCONF(1)

NAME
       isdnconf - manipulate or read ISDN phone number config files.

SYNOPSIS
       isdnconf

DESCRIPTION
       isdnconf	 can  manipulate  or  read the file /etc/isdn/callerid.conf as
       well as ~/.isdn.	 Entries can be added or  removed  from	 these	files.
       Additionally,  entries can be searched for and displayed in a way simi‐
       lar to grep.  An entry can be an own MSN	 ([MSN])  or  a	 phone	number
       ([NUMBER]).

       You  can	 use this program to build your own phonebook. These files are
       used by many of the other ISDN utilities that  use  phone  numbers,  to
       display a number symbolicly instead of as a plain number.

OPTIONS
       Note:  usage of the options -A and -D is dangerous! The complete struc‐
       ture of the file may be changed, and all	 comments  are	removed!  Make
       backups of your data files before trying these.

       COMMAND OPTIONS:

       -A  Add	a  new entry, which is read from standard input. The following
	   values are asked for (here with examples):

	   Alias:	   Fred
	   Number:	   0815/441777
	   SI:		   0
	   Zone:	   4
	   Interface:	   -
	   Flags:	   I|O
	   Program:	   /usr/local/bin/ring
	   User:	   uucp
	   Group:	   user
	   Interval:
	   Time:	   8-20
	   Flags:	   (control-D here indicates end of flags)

	   Alias:	   (control-D here indicated end of entries)

	   If you want another	[Flags]	 entry,	 simply	 enter	the  data  for
	   another  program  for  this number at the point where the control-D
	   was given above.

	   If you want to add another number, simply enter the	data  for  the
	   next number at the Alias prompt.

	   You	can  also pipe the data into this program; the input data then
	   must correspond to the prompts that the program  gives!  Note  that
	   you	can  only  add	one  number  at a time then (there's no way of
	   telling isdnconf that you want to stop giving Flags info and	 start
	   giving the next Alias info).

       -D  Delete  one or more entries which match the data options given. How
	   to supply the data to match is discussed below (see DATA OPTIONS).

       -V  version: display the program's version and terminate.

       If both -A and -D are given together, isdnconf will terminate, as  this
       is not a valid combination.

       If neither -A nor -D is given, then isdnconf will display entries which
       match the data given.

       DATA OPTIONS: (none applicable for -A)

       -n 'number'
	   number: match the given number. It can contain wildcards.

       -a 'alias'
	   alias: match the given alias name. The name can contain  wildcards.
	   Note: due to a bug, use '?' instead of '-'.

       -t 'SI'
	   SI: match the given service indicator.

       -c 'code'
	   code: match the area code of the phone number. Only usable for dis‐
	   playing (not for -A nor -D).

       -i  ignore case for the -n and -a options.

       -w  word: the parameters for -n and -a must match the whole value,  not
	   just a substring.
	   Examples (here for -n):

	   "*34*" matches 123456, 345677, 1234
	   "34*"  matches 34567, 34111 but not 1234
	   "34??" matches 3411, 3456
	   "34"	  matches only 34

	   Without the -w option, these would match:

	   "*34*" matches 123456, 345677, 1234
	   "34*"  matches 123456, 345677, 1234, 34567, 34111
	   "34??" matches 123456, 345677, 1234, 3411, 3456
	   "34"	  matches 123456, 345677, 1234, 3411, 3456, 34567

       -d  and:	 by  default the values given to options -n, -a and -t will be
	   combined with a logical OR. If these should be combined with a log‐
	   ical	 AND (which is probably what most people expect!) you must use
	   this -d option.  In this case you can only supply each of  the  -n,
	   -a and -t options exactly once.

       OTHER OPTIONS:

       -q  quiet:  when using the -A or -D commands, the output is suppressed.
	   When not using the -A or -D commands, only the alias of the	match‐
	   ing	number	is  shown, or just the number in case the alias is not
	   found.

       -m  MSN: when used in combination with the -A command,  instructs  isd‐
	   nconf  to  create  a	 new MSN entry; the default is to create a new
	   NUMBER entry. Only the values alias, number, SI, zone and interface
	   are applicable to an MSN entry.

       The  following two options do not apply to the -A and -D commands. They
       only change the output format.

       -s  short: only display the alias and the number.

       -l  long: also display the programs to run ([START]).

       -f 'filename'
	   file: usually isdnconf uses	the  /etc/isdn/callerid.conf  and  the
	   ~/.isdn  files.  If isdnconf should be applied to another file, use
	   this option.

       -g  global: only applies to the -A and -D commands. Instead of  editing
	   ~/.isdn, /etc/isdn/callerid.conf is edited.

       -1  first: only delete or display the first entry.

       -M  isdnmon: used internally by isdnmon to get alias info.
