announcement - say digits

Description

I have written a module that can accept caller input. I use that to request callers to input their data. I would find it useful to be able to have an announcement that instead of a static file can read back digits from a variable, something that generates config lines like this 

[annoucement-1]
exten=>s,1,saydigits(${contact_tel})
exten=>s,n,goto(ivr-1,s,1)

and then goes to a destination (for example an ivr destination to ask for confirmation or reinput). Is this something which should be written as a separate module or an enhancement to existing announcement module?

this sounds about as specific as #4514

it sounds like you are trying to piece together a pretty specific and interactive IVR for a unique application. It's great that FreePBX is flexible enough that you can almost do that all with modules, but similar to my comments in the other ticket, this really sounds like something that is likely better suited for some custom dialplan (or module or AGI script) work.
