Find below a quick and dirty chat script that I wrote for sending messages
to Telstra's SMS service. You need a modem, but that's all. I've also got a
cheap and nasty perl script for an email to SMS gateway, if anyone is
interested.

#!/bin/sh
#

TARGET=61417231046       # insert your phone number here, or make this $1
and MSG=$2
MSG=$1

SMS_NUMBER=0418707767
TTYPARM="2400 cs8 cstopb -parenb"
DEVNAME=ttyS1            # insert name of modem device here. DON"T USE /dev/modem -
locking doesn't work!

LOCKFILE=/var/lock/LCK..$DEVNAME
DEV=/dev/$DEVNAME

if [ -e $LOCKFILE ] ; then
  echo "Modem in use - try again later"
  exit
fi

echo "   $$" > $LOCKFILE  # this isn't atomic, but it's good enough =8^)!!
echo $$

stty $TTYPARM > $DEV

/usr/sbin/chat -v <$DEV > $DEV REPORT CONNECT ABORT BUSY ABORT 'NO DIALTONE'
ABORT 'NO CARRIER' '' ATZ OK "\\dATDT${SMS_NUMBER}" CONNECT '' 'QUIT)'
"$TARGET\\n" "KEY" "$MSG" "BEING SENT" "ATH" > $DEV < $DEV
