Thank you for a constructive reply. I am not a war monger and I appreciate a proper response.<div><br></div><div>I will explore my options to that. My opinion may still be that such long commands are unnecessary but at least it seems there is a way to go around them for now and I am happy to hear that.</div>

First of all, what the heck is this link you referenced:<br>

Secondly, an Asterisk 1.6.2.18 that I am running right now plays nicely with<br>
"help" command. The 1.8 does do that. So, 1.6.2.18 has not been around for 3<br>
years. Again, stop misleading and changing the subject. When you state 3<br>
years ago that is absolutely false. In doesn't apply to any of the Asterisk<br>
versions till 1.8xx<br>

You seem to be missing the point or not reading my replies. The reason '*CLI> help' still works on asterisk 1.6.2, is because of the changes made 3 years ago add res_clialiases.so. Without it, the command would actually not work.<br>
<br>
Here is a simple test you can do on your 1.6.2 / 1.8 asterisk box:<br>
<br>
*CLI> module unload res_clialiases.so<br>
Unloaded res_clialiases.so<br>
*CLI> help<br>
No such command 'help' (type 'core show help help' for other possible commands)<br>
<br>
As you can see, without res_clialiases.so the command does not work. So, if you are saying the '*CLI> help' command does not work, then check your asterisk configuration first.<div class="im"><br>

My post was very clear. Yes, it was sarcastic due to frustration but it was<br>
very clear and I wanted to say that there is no need to do "core show help<br>
sip" when you can simply do "help sip".<br>
<br>
I still don't think your reply was called for. These trolls like I said help<br>
you live through with your attitude. If you were my employee and talked like<br>
this to anyone I would fire you right away.<br>
<br>
I am asking you nicely to please stop making this about yourself or Digium.<br>
Like I said, I like Asterisk. I love it. It works very good. Please listen<br>
to the community feedback without getting so defensive. No one gains<br>
anything from changes like this. I am sure Digium can afford one afternoon<br>
meeting to decide what the commands naming convention should be for the next<br>
20 years.<br>

I don't even know how to reply to this, so I won't. Thanks for all the fish.<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br>
