How it works
This most of this information you can find in the documentation which is included
by the program. You can get it at the download page
The fax.py take care for incoming faxes. These faxes
are send to the managers e-mail address. The e-mail has the fax picture as
attachment and a link which is the web.cgi.
The web.cgi is used to manage the faxes. You can give information to the fax.
This information will be stored in a text file. Also the faxes can be removed
or modified.
The templates (made with cheetah) are used to make a webpage where the faxes
can be showed, modified, added or removed.
The web interface shows always, except by adding/modifying
or showing the fax, the archive template. By accessing the web.cgi also the
incoming faxes as the last ten faxes are shown. After that only the archive
and lastten faxes are shown. But the archive and the incoming faxes can be
called in.
The textfile has the .txt extension. If you choose an extension that has less
or more characters, for example .text, there are a few changes which have
to been made.
For the fax picture its the same story. The fax picture has .tiff, but this
is standard by Asterisk. At the downloads page you can choose a file that
use 3 (tif) or 4 (tiff) characters for the image. You don't have to change
that anymore.
