After dialing an extension and reaching a dial plan, how
does one read input and what is that variable (I the input
is stored as a defined system var) called? Given I don't know
what any of these terms are, its making it hard to search 
Thanks!

The function is 'read'.
Read(variable[|filename][|maxdigits][|option][|attempts][|timeout])

Or, depending on what the OP is trying to accomplish, maybe "waitexten()"
is what he is looking for.
Thanks in advance,

Lol, I was trying to build a dialplan to authenticate for long distance,
but wasn't sure what I was looking for to accept the actual number once
in the dial plan. Theory was user dials 1234, it then prompts for authentication
and if successful, WaitExten or Read looks like it could do what I need. I was
hoping to then play something suggesting to enter number which would then push
that into my Dial SIP line. Not sure what is more appropriate, Read or WaitExten?
Thanks!
