SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       using dialog and allows to send a text SMS choosing recipients from the phone address book or entering it
       manually.

   OPTIONS
       Available options:

       [--debug|-D]
              May bother with more debugging messages. For debugging purpose.

       --simul[ate], -S
              Simulation mode. Doesn't really send SMS by phone. Only simulates. For debugging purpose.

       --forceSMread, -s
              Forces sendsms to read phonebook from SIM card, and to parse the generated file in order to update
              the numbers' list (useful only if required to pickup number from the phone's memory). See NOTE.

       --forceMEread, -m
              Forces sendsms to read phonebook from phone memory, and to parse the generated file  in  order  to
              update  the  numbers' list (useful only if required to pickup number from the phone's memory). See
              NOTE.

       --skipgnokiicheck, -K
              Skip the test of the presence of binary 'gnokii'. (It must be somewhere in your $PATH).  It allows
              you to try this script program, even if you don't have 'gnokii' already. ;)

       --smsset, --setsms
              Allows  you to preset a SMS message from STDIN. (pipe or input redirection).  This message will be
              proposed on the 'SMS message' field during the program input cycle.

       --help, -h, /h
              display this help and exit

       --version, -V
              output version information and exit"

       NOTE:  If you require to pickup number from phone's memory (or from SIM card), for  the  first  time,  it
              anyway reads phonebook from your mobile phone.  (It may take a while... please, be patient ;-)
