Some folks have said  "I don't need the dialing option in LIST as I
already have a dialer."  Maybe so.  But I haven't ever wanted to use
any of the dialers I've seen because none of them have ever satisfied
all of my needs (or likes).
  As a long time user of LIST, though, I have become quite happy with
the FIND/SCAN options found in LIST.  So, adding minimal dialing
abilities to LIST is just what I needed!
  Here are a few tricks I have found that help me alot.

- Make a [P]CED synonym to activate LIST pointing to your phone list:

     SYN c*all 'list c:\path\phones.lst /F%1' for example

- Start the phone number itself in column 1.

Then, to dial up, say "joe", all you have to do is:

c joe
ctrl-T
move cursor down to the beginning of the highlighted line
Enter
Space
talk on da phone

  With LIST and PCED always on my system anyway, I don't have to have
another program around that I have to learn and maintain.  (Of course,
if there is a dialer that is small, fast, allows searches that work as
easy as LIST, that allow me to use my own editor to build the phone
list, and is free for personal use, I'll be glad to listen.)

  Those of you who use 4DOS can surely creat an ALIAS to do the same.
