an old shell script to enable one to do vonage dialing from the command line. particularly nice when you have the phone number in your clipboard and you want to use quicksilver or something along those lines to make the call.

vonage.sh

#!/bin/sh
#
RCFILE=$HOME/.vonage
PREFIX='1'

#if [ a$1 = a ]
#then
#    printf '\n\nUsage: dial \n\n'
#    exit
#fi

if [ ! -f $HOME/.vonage ]
then
    printf 'phone number: '
    read aPhoneNum
    printf 'phone username: '
    read aUser
    printf 'phone password (not echoed): '
    stty -echo
    read aPass
    stty echo
    echo #!/bin/sh >$RCFILE
    echo VONAGE_USERNAME=$aUser    >>$RCFILE
    echo VONAGE_PASSWORD=$aPass    >>$RCFILE
    echo VONAGE_NUMBER=$aPhoneNum  >>$RCFILE
    chmod 600 $RCFILE
fi

. $HOME/.vonage

PHONENUM=`pbpaste | sed 's/[^[:alnum:]]//g'`;
