[Freeswitch-users] Bug in mod_commands.c with show calls command

[Anthony Minessale]

Perhaps you may be reading up on something quickly and not worrying about
the absolute correctness of something that is not critical to our time to
explain.

The proper syntax for the command is "show calls as xml" and you are not
really using XMLRPC you are hitting it via direct url. so you will then
need.

http://192.168.1.1:8080/txtapi/show?calls%20as%20xml<http://192.168.1.1:8080/txtapi/show?calls>


anything in the show command can be replied to with "as xml"

also, for fun, try

show calls as csv :::
