[OpenSIPS-Users] Using pseudo variables in xlog

[Liviu Chircu]

Hi John,

The current variable naming syntax allows "." as part of the name, so in 
your 1st example, OpenSIPS doesn't start because it cannot look up the 
"$si." variable. An example of this naming convention in practice are 
the NAT traversal variables [1].

Nevertheless, your topic has helped me uncover a bug in the ViM syntax 
highlighting regexes, which I will promptly fix. Nice!

Cheers,
