[Asterisk-Users] How do i make best use of Macro?

[Martin Pycko]

The meetmecount app is supposed to tell you the number of participants in
a certain conf number. However it does not create the var variable.
The error about "wrong use of LEN(" was do to the fact that your var
variable does not exist and it was a bug. It's fixed now.
