Re: [Pyst-users] Debug back to Asterisk console from AGI scripts

[Matthew A. N. <mni...@di...>]

If you would like to print information to the asterisk console you can 
use the agi.verbose() command.  Also if you start asterisk in console 
mode (-c) you can print to stderr and it will show up on the asterisk 
console (sort of).

A patch to asterisk redirect stderr back to the console in all cases 
would be some what useful.
