If you have an AT&T Wireless, Bell Canada/Bell Mobility, Cellular One,
|
|
Cingular, Cricket, Sprint PCS, SkyTel, or T-Mobile cell phone or pager, and you
|
|
want the ability to send SMS messages to it via a command-line utility, this is
|
|
what you need. All this program requires is a computer with a baseline Perl 5.x
|
|
installation and web access. NO EXTRA PERL MODULES REQUIRED!
|
|
|
|
How does it work?
|
|
SendSMS connects to your service provider's web page and pretends to submit a
|
|
form to their 'Instant Messaging' web page. Currently, AT&T Wireless, Bell
|
|
Canada/Bell Mobility, Cellular One, Cingular, Cricket, SkyTel, Sprint PCS, and
|
|
T-Mobile are supported. Users are encouraged to modify the provided templates to
|
|
add support for any providers who are currently unsupported.
|
|
|
|
Other Service Providers
|
|
If you are interested in supporting another service provider please try to
|
|
modify sendSMS on your own. It is not hard at all. Instructions and examples are
|
|
included in the code, and if you're familiar with the site you're porting to, it
|
|
takes about 15 minutes. If you get sendSMS working with any other providers' web
|
|
sites, please email Paul Kreiner [deacon at thedeacon.org] and/or the port
|
|
maintainer a patch so it can be added to the next release.
