The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: GSM::SMS
DSLIP: Rmpha
description: Modules for sending and receiving SMS.
userid: JOHANVDB (Johan Van den Brande)
chapterid: 23 (Miscellaneous_Modules)
communities:
http://www.tektonica.com/projects/gsmsms/
similar:
NET::SMS ( ? )
rationale:
One thing Perl was missing was connectivity to SMS. As GSM is a
global standard for wireless communication and SMS is a subset of
GSM, I think it is reasonable to use GSM::SMS as a prefix. GSM is
not going to get away very soon, GPRS for example is also a GSM
standard. The usage of the GSM 'toplevel' module space, will allow
for modules like GSM::ATCellular ( interprets AT command set for
cellular phones), GSM::SMS etc...
If we look at the availability for Smart Messaging API's, there is
none for Perl, the rest are commercial or not for Perl. My approach
uses a 'vendor' independent one, I'm not linked to a certain web
based SMS center, hence the Modem support. What I try to accomplish
here is a generic API on which to build SMS support for Perl,
independent of the transport used for the messages themselves ...
Please have a look at this and let me know!
kind regards,
Johan Van den Brande
