19   OPTIONS
20       Available options:
21
22       [--debug|-D]
23              May bother with more debugging messages. For debugging purpose.
24
25       --simul[ate], -S
26              Simulation mode. Doesn't really send SMS by  phone.  Only  simu‐
27              lates. For debugging purpose.
28
29       --forceSMread, -s
30              Forces sendsms to read phonebook from SIM card, and to parse the
31              generated file in order to update the numbers' list (useful only
32              if required to pickup number from the phone's memory). See NOTE.
33
34       --forceMEread, -m
35              Forces sendsms to read phonebook from phone memory, and to parse
36              the generated file in order to update the numbers' list  (useful
37              only  if required to pickup number from the phone's memory). See

39
40       --skipgnokiicheck, -K
41              Skip the test of the presence of binary 'gnokii'.  (It  must  be
42              somewhere in your $PATH).  It allows you to try this script pro‐
43              gram, even if you don't have 'gnokii' already. ;)
44
45       --smsset, --setsms
46              Allows you to preset a SMS message from STDIN.  (pipe  or  input

48              sage' field during the program input cycle.
