The only one that currently exists is the agi command RECEIVE TEXT.

You're going to have to write an AGI for it.

You'll find it in the latest CVS HEAD.  But it's agi, not an application.

pabx*CLI> show agi receive text
Usage: RECEIVE TEXT <timeout>
Receives a string of text on a channel. Specify timeout to be the
maximum time to wait for input in milliseconds, or 0 for infinite. Most
channels do not support the reception of text. Returns -1 for failure or
1 for success, and the string in parentheses.
