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

browser's interaction with those websites. This script requires a valid
web account with O2 Ireland, Vodafone Ireland or Meteor Ireland.
The author accepts no responsibility nor liability for your use of this
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

alias beerpeople +353865550000 +353865550001 +353865550002
