[asterisk-users] What web GUI are people happy with?

[shadowym]

Ok Thanks,

I guess I'll have to give it a shot.  I just assumed it would be more work
than 30minutes (after the initial learning curve) for a moderately complex
dialplan..

Just call me out if you feel the need to. Please don't try and hide
behind the "some people on here" type of comments. Call me out
directly if you feel the need.  I can take it :-)

So...I don't feel the need to prove myself to you.  I have a fairly
good grasp on the conf file syntax, and with a well-thought out and
well documented goal, it's not unreasonable for me to say that I can
type out a config from scratch in 30 minutes.  After working in vim
for as long as I have, you learn to use the many shortcuts that it
provides for text manipulation, copy buffers, moving blocks of code
around, etc.  I also use a syntax highlighting rule file for asterisk
configs, so any typos I make are immediately evident.

It's really remarkable how this discussion has turned into a pissing
match.  I could really care less if you have a hard time believing my
statements.  I'm not trying to push CLI on you or anyone.  Yes - I
recommend that people give it a try before going to a GUI, but I fully
recognize that vanilla asterisk text configuration isn't for everyone.

P.S. By the way - don't misquote me.  I said nothing about laying down
a config in 3 minutes.
