[Asterisk-Users] Modifications to Voicemail

[tmassey at obscorp.com]

Hello!

In honor of 1.2 being released, and now that I'm in the mindset to go 
spelunking into Asterisk code to address minor annoyances, I have a second 
issue:

Every voicemail system I'm aware of (my Sprint cellphone voicemail, Nortel 
systems, InterTel telehpone sytsems and others that slip my mind) all use 
1 to bypass the voicemail greeting.  Asterisk's voicemail uses #.  That 
annoys me.  I want to change it.

>From what I've seen, there is no configuration file for Voicemail that 
allows you to override the keys that are used within it.  Is that true? 
Are they really hard-coded with the application?  If not, how *do* you 
configure them?

If that is so, I would like to start playing with that:  first changing 
the hardcoded value, and then coming up with a way of setting that within 
the configuration file. I'm no real C programmer, but it motivates me, so 
I'd at least like to figure out what it would take to do it.  Is there any 
documentation (outside the source, of course) that might guide me a bit?
