Hmm, this is turning into a regular saga now: so much so I’ve added a voip tag to these posts to help keep them together.
My original macro worked just fine when the incoming number and the dialled extension matched, but this is only true for my LAN and is not generally true when using external [...]
Now I haven’t actually got around to trying find these myself: 1.5.4 was working just fine for me and I couldn’t see anything that the 1.5.6 update would give me until I get OS X 10.5 (and that’s not likely until Aperture is properly supported there[1]) but others have found this information and posted them [...]
