[asterisk-users] asterisk hints

[Danny Nicholas]

On my Polycom 501's I use hints to populate a "buddy" list - I hit the
buddies softkey and can see if my "buddy" is on the line.

Hey guys!

I am new in hints application. what is the use of this application ( i
already did google ) but still confused. If i want to use hint in my
dialplan then should i type each and every extension in hint dialplan or is
there regex available 

something like following  _XXX will watch all my extension. Because we have
more than 200 phones so its hard to write down each and every extension in
hint

[hints]
exten => _XXX,hint,SIP/${EXTEN}

exten => 7527,hint,SIP/7527

The answer depends on the version you are using.  Hints are (in my
experience) most useful for BLF and AMI applications.
