The program is currently designed to get all its arguments from
the command line. However...

If getting only the message from a file is good enough for
you, than you can use the shell to achieve that effect:
sendsms me shlomo "`cat /tmp/tmp-sms`"
Notes:
1. Watch the backticks (not an apostrophe), this is command
substitution in shell (i.e: the output of the command
is substituted in its place).
2. Only double quotes enable this. Single quote would disable
the command substitution.
Now if you really insist that the file would contain:
me "Shlomo" "this is a test message"
Than you can do some shell judo:
eval sendsms "`cat /tmp/tmp-sms`"
