Hi,
Do we have some instant message client? Something that can send a text message to a mobile phone, from a script? Say whatsapp, signal, telegram... :-?
I have used such a script for almost twenty years, but it requires a mobile phone subscription.
Just for completeness - in the beginning (2004/5), it was in fact free and needed no mobile. It just used the landline SMS service centre, which came free-of-charge with my telephone subscription. Later on, maybe 5-6 years ago, we switched to VoIP and the access to the SMSC was gone, so I had to work it out with a cheap pre-paid mobile subscription.
I have recently switched to Threema instead.
What Adam mentioned looks very interesting though, I'll have to try it out. I'm a little bit hesitant about needing an app, I have been bitten before, by apps no longer being supported after an Android upgrade. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (7.3°C) Member, openSUSE Heroes (2016 - present) We're hiring - https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Heroes
