🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

jpilot-dial [options] number...

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the vibe: jpilot-dial generates the DTMF tone signals used for telephone dialing, and by default it sends those signals straight to the sound card. no cap.

it can be used for easy dialing — literally just put the telephone microphone near the computer speaker and let the software dial for you. your computer is doing the button-pressing now, bestie. 💅
