It depends whether or not the extension actually USES typoscript to
produce the images and/or links in the first place. If it does, you
should be able to find something in the TSOB, but it it doesn't,
you'll be stuck with hacking the php code.

Actually, I just had a look at the TS [1] and the PHP [2]. Try this:


tt_content.text.20.parseFunc.tags.link.typolink.userFunc.linkImgMailto.altText
= foo

tt_content.text.20.parseFunc.tags.link.typolink.userFunc.linkImgExt.altText
= bar

tt_content.text.20.parseFunc.tags.link.typolink.userFunc.linkImgInt.altText
= foobar


...it looks as though linkImgMailto. is used in the creation of an
IMAGE cObject within the PHP code, so it ought to work. For that
matter, it also looks like the whole extension could be done with TS
and no userFunc--admittedly, the TS might be longer than the TS...
