# source link : http://digitalpbk.com/2009/12/perl-script-send-free-sms-any-mobile-number-india-using-way2sms
# From CPAN : from CPAN link itself you can download the source for way2sms.
#
# Modified by : Arulalan.T (arulalant@gmail.com)
#
# Goal : send sms through way2sms.com with few easy options. So I modified this below code accordingly.
#
# Note : This should work only to the Indian regions cell phone numbers only
#
# Usage :
# Save this file in the path /usr/bin/sms and make it as excutable by setting permission
# 1. $ sms 9876543210 'hello'
# 2. $ sms 9876543210,9876501234,9988776655 'hai dude'
# 3. $ sms -f sms-nos-list-file 'message'
# sms-nos-list-file is a text file, that contains the 10 digit phone nos with new line character.
# i.e. each line must have only one phone no.
# We no need to use +91 or 0 prefix no. So use only 10 digit phone no alone.
