Description André Vandenbroeck 2005-08-11 20:40:55 UTC

Version:           1.0 (using KDE 3.4.0-1.4.3.kde, Fedora)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.4.2 20041017 (Red Hat 3.4.2-6.fc3)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.11-1.27_FC3

To send a fax I have to insert a comma in the number after the first zero, in order to get an external line (ie: 0,016123123)
This comma (=pause) is accepted when I use the commandline (ie: fax DEV=ttyS0 send 0,016123123 file.txt)
In KdeprintFax, using EFax, this comma is shown on the screen, but is not passed to EFax.  The log shows 
- Fax wordt verzonden naar (is send to) 0,016601527 ()
- ...
- Verzendt naar (sending to) fax via: /usr/bin/fax NAME="'andre'" DEV='ttyS0' PAGE='a4'  send -l '0016601527' '/tmp/....
- ...
- efax: 34:22 dialing T0016601527

And there it ends, with a lot of beeps.

Indeed, this does not work in current kdeprintfax because non-numeric characters are removed automatically from the fax number.

Comment 2 André Vandenbroeck 2005-08-12 21:38:04 UTC

So, I can not use KdeprintFax?

Something for the wish-list?

Comment 3 Michael Goffioul 2005-08-22 11:18:39 UTC

I'm afraid not. This is a single-line change in the code, but it requires recompilation of kdeprintfax.

Yes, it's something for the wish list.

KDEPrint is obsolete, unmaintained and will never be revived.  Closing all open bugs.
