I created a shell script with Zenity and dtmfdial that will automatically dial a number on a phone. All you have to do is type the phone number and put a phone up to the computer's speaker and press OK. The program also has a contact list and has area code settings.

I don't think I programmed this to work with 1-800 numbers. The help file included will tell you how to run this program without having an open terminal.

Please leave comments.

Makes me think of the movie wargames (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086567/). :)
What do you use it for?

And most importantly: Where is it?

i don't think i've seen wargames.

honestly, i don't really use this. i just made it on my free time but i'm rarely on the phone and whenever i am, someone either called me, or i just happened to remember the number of the person i wanted to call.


i'm not sure why its not posted, i swear i did. i can get to that later today when i get home, if i remember
