<p class="MsoNormal">Hi All,<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have modified this excellent example LUA script (<a href="https://confluence.freeswitch.org/display/FREESWITCH/Lua+Intercom+example" target="_blank">https://confluence.freeswitch.org/display/FREESWITCH/Lua+Intercom+example</a>) to return “true” if an
 extension is in use and “false” otherwise”.  Just FYI: this is great for Cisco phones because an auto-answer (intercom) connection will interrupt the current call unless you block ALL intercom use.  With this I can sent intercom if not in use, or send as a
 standard call otherwise.  My complements to the original chef!<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My request is for someone to explain the pattern matching pattern used in this function:<u></u><u></u></p>
