TEL(1)							      General Commands Manual							    TEL(1)

NAME
tel, iwhois - look in phone book SYNOPSIS
tel key ... iwhois name[@domain] DESCRIPTION
Tel looks up key in a private telephone book, $home/lib/tel, and in the public telephone book, /lib/tel. It uses grep (with the -i option to ignore case differences), so the key may be any part of a name or number. Customarily, the telephone book contains names, userids, home numbers, and office numbers of users. It also contains a directory of area codes and miscellaneous people of general interest. Iwhois looks up names in the Internet NIC's personnel database. Name should be a surname optionally followed by a comma and given name. A different server can be chosen by appending to the name an @ followed by the server's domain name. FILES
/lib/tel Public telephone number database. SOURCE
/rc/bin/tel /rc/bin/iwhois TEL(1)

Regexp::Common::URI::tel(3)				User Contributed Perl Documentation			       Regexp::Common::URI::tel(3)

NAME
Regexp::Common::URI::tel -- Returns a pattern for telephone URIs. SYNOPSIS
use Regexp::Common qw /URI/; while (<>) { /$RE{URI}{tel}/ and print "Contains a telephone URI. "; } DESCRIPTION
$RE{URI}{tel} Returns a pattern that matches tel URIs, as defined by RFC 2806. Under "{-keep}", the following are returned: $1 The complete URI. $2 The scheme. $3 The phone number, including any possible add-ons like ISDN subaddress, a post dial part, area specifier, service provider, etc. $RE{URI}{tel}{nofuture} As above (including what's returned by "{-keep}"), with the exception that future extensions are not allowed. Without allowing those future extensions, it becomes much easier to check a URI if the correct syntax for post dial, service provider, phone context, etc has been used - otherwise the regex could always classify them as a future extension.
