Hello!

 

I have a problem sending plain text messages using Kannel. The reason is that my application (just a bunch of PHP scripts) does it in a somewhat peculiar way. What I want to do is to send a text message as a “binary” message, meaning that I want to do the latin1 -> gsm charset myself and pass this data on to Kannel. The problem is that in order to do this, I must set the charset GET variable to indicate that I am in fact supplying Kannel with 7-bit data instead of the latin1 data it assumes. If I don’t set this, Kannel interprets my GSM packed text string a latin1 characters and encodes them, once again, to the GSM charset (which, of course, just becomes a mess). So, my question is; what value should I set the charset variable to? Is there a charset name for the GSM charset?

 

I hope anyone knows the answer to this question… And please don’t tell me to simply send the text as latin1 charcaters as I unfortunately cannot do this with this application! J

 

Thanks in advance!
