I am sick and can't sleep. So I though I would do something productive. Commandline sms now has much cleaner code, it has methods. The end user benefits aren't huge, but you can now see how many sms'es you have left. This can be turned off in the config file, as it requires another request and slows things down.
The methods and remaining sms check were all a precursor to my idea for a multi-mode. Pick 'n Pay is selling Vodacom starter packs for R2 (they have a recommended selling price of R149). I bought five. If I register each one for a vodacom4me account, I can up my daily sms bandwidth from a paltry 20 to a more useful 100. I can then plug RSS feeds or the like in on the one end without risking using up my limit. I haven't released mutlimode as yet, because it is a bit rickety.
You can get hold of the new version in the usual place: http://singe.rucus.net/utils/vodasms.tar.gz
