I've used it to send APRS msg traffic, I just haven't gotten around to
an even dirtier version to look for the proper msg number ID and to
ack those yet.
If/when you do, consider adding the extra messaging protocols
(REPLY-ACK for one) that are listed in the APRS spec addendums.
They really make messaging fly if both ends implement them.
Makes me wonder how hard it would be to create a Perl text-mode app
just to do APRS messaging. That might be kind'a fun!
