o2sms
       o2sms - A perl script to send SMS messages using .ie websites.

DESCRIPTION
       "o2sms" is a script to send SMS messages via the command line using the
       websites of Irish mobile operators. This is done by simulating a web
       browser's interaction with those websites. This script requires a valid
       web account with O2 Ireland, Vodafone Ireland or Meteor Ireland.

       software.  Please read the terms and conditions of the website of your
       mobile provider before using the program.

CONFIGURATION FILE
       Configuration is in the file "~/.o2sms/config" (or "~/.vodasms/config"
       or "~/.meteorsms/config" or "~/.threesms/config") (or
       "~/.aftsms/config") or can be overwritten with the -c / --config-file
       command line option.

       Values in this file are stored as one per line and take the same name
       and format as their command line equivalents.

       The one exception to this is the 'alias' setting, which defines a named
       alias for one number (a straight alias) or more than one number (a
       group).

       Configuration file example:

         username frankc
         password mong0l0id
         nosplit
         alias mammy +353865551234
