Default: from ncidd.conf- -i, --ignore1
This is a US/Canada option only.
A leading one in an alias definition and in the calling number is ignored.
Normally an alias requires the calling number as it appears in the cidcall.log. In the US a leading 1 may or may not be provided in incoming or outgoing calls.
Default: from ncidd.conf, the leading 1 must be in the alias if it is in the calling number.- -M, --multi
Updates the current cidcall.log file and previous call files .1 to .9.
Default: Updates only the cidcall.log file- -r, --regex <0-2>
If regex = 0, uses Simple Expressions.
If regex = 1, uses Posix Regular Expressions.
If regex = 2, uses Perl-compatible Expressions.
Default: Uses Simple Expressions- -y, --yes
Answer yes to the prompt for overwriting the old call log with the generated new one.
Default: Waits for user input
