[asterisk-users] Probably a simple question. Dial a call.

[LWATCDR]

I would like to add a function to an existing application that will
make an outgoing call.
I found this example using the Manager API for originating a call to
an extension.

I was wondering if the manager API was the correct way to do this and
If anyone has any example code for doing this kind of thing?
Thanks for the help.
