Hang on a sec. I'm just about finished.

Or if it's just for viewing I'd html it.

This is the complete php file with comments.
It takes all *.conf files and goes through them.
<?php // find matching files, put in array called filename $filename=glob("*.conf"); // scan through all the files foreach ($filename as $f) { // print filename print "File: $f\n"; // read all lines into lines array $lines=file($f); $no=0; // linenumber $comment=[]; // comments array // go through the file and pick out what we need foreach ($lines as $line) { $no++; // look for [context] if ($line[0]=='[') { $context=$line; print "$context"; } // look for extensions $search="exten =>"; if (substr($line,0,strlen($search))==$search) { //print $line; // we found the extension row // lets take everything after "exten =>" $extline=trim(substr($line,strlen($search))); // lets divide it up $parts=explode(',', $extline); $ext=$parts[0]; // extension number // check that it's ?????,1,????? if ($parts[1]=='1') { // valid extension, actual extension is $parts[0]; $ext=$line; // print comments foreach($comment as $c) print "$c"; // print the extesion and empty line print "$ext"; } $comments=[]; // clear comments } // look for comments if ($line[0]==';') { // add to comments but only first 3 lines if (count($comment)<3) $comment[]=$line; //print_r($comment); } else { // non empty line? => clear comments if (trim($line)>'') $comment=[]; } } } ?> -

It's because I've been working with another language all day that uses
:=to assign a variable and not just=Takes me a few minutes to reboot my brain into php mode. :smiling_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Just for fun I found some extensions.conf file on the net to try. It led me to add some better formatting so the output is more readable.
PS. Just a small change like this that would have caused hours of search on regex, options for grep, awk, sed etc to try and make something work. That's why I think it's easier to just go full on programming language as soon as it is more complex than just finding a few lines that matches.
I know as this is all for naught but whatever.
Output from the php script:

@Pete-S this all hit as I was commuting home.
I have a copy of the files on a server I have access to from home and will be working on this tomorrow.
Thanks.

@Pete-S Well tomorrow becamse the following Wednesday.. But. this works perfectly.
Now to figure out WTF all this stuff is that I need to replicate into FreePBX.

@JaredBusch Glad it worked as intended.
