Yes, Remote-Phone-Button works just fine.

I use Garnet Bailey's Phone stuff from the archives; I've modified it a
little (still isn't working 100%) since I've moved over to windows. 
Actually, the phone event works just fine but I have a "ring kill" relay
which stops the house phones from ringing until after the CID
announcement.  The command I used to use to re-set it isn't available
under ECS 4 with Phone-Interface-C, so I'm experimenting in small doses.

I probably have a text file with just the phone stuff in it if you'd
like it e-mailed directly (this will be -old- ECS 3.3) but should get
you started.  I could also probably suppliment it with a "cut-n-paste"
from my CFG file.

A word of caution - phone stuff is just about the hardest to "figure
out" in ECS.  Lots of interlinking.  It's NOT a 1 or 2 night project!
