  //context is a new instance of agi.Context for each new agi session
  //immedately after asterisk connects to the node process
  context.on('variables', function(vars) {
    console.log('received new call from: ' + vars.agi_callerid + ' with uniqueid: ' + vars.agi_uniqueid);
  });
}).listen(3000);

  //fax has been recieved by asterisk and written to /tmp/myfax.tif
});
