Ok so I take the example from _THE BOOK_ and fix it a little for * 1.4.1
exten => 8200,1,Goto(record,s,1)
[record]
exten => s,1,Answer
exten => s,n,Set(CHANNEL(language)=es)
exten => s,n(new),Read(RECORD|enter4digits|4)
exten => s,n(restart),Playback(record-instructions)
exten => s,n,Record(/tmp/recording-${RECORD}.wav)
exten => s,n,Playback(/tmp/recording-${RECORD}.wav)
exten => s,n(options),Background(1toaccept2torerecord3torecordanother)
exten => s,n,WaitExten(5)
exten => s,n,Goto(s,1)
exten => 1,1,Hangup
exten => 2,1,SayDigits(${RECORD})
exten => 2,n,Goto(s,restart)
exten => 3,1,Goto(s,new)
exten => 4,1,Goto(s,options)
exten => 5,1,Playback(/tmp/recording-${RECORD}.wav)
exten => 5,1,Goto(s,options)
I then test this
