## Installation

First of all, you should have a working gammu setup.
Here is my Gammu setup:

/etc/gammurc: 
~~~
[gammu]
port = /dev/ttyUSB0
connection = at
~~~

/etc/gammurc:
~~~
[gammu]
port = /dev/ttyUSB0
connection = at
~~~

/etc/gammu-smsdrc:
~~~
[gammu]
port = /dev/ttyUSB0
connection = at
synchronizetime = yes
logfile = /var/spool/sms/log
logformat = textalldate


[smsd]
Service = files
RetryTimeout=60
MaxRetries=2

OutboxPath   = /directory/youwant/to/sms/outbox/
InboxPath    = /directory/youwant/to/sms/inbox/
SentSMSPath  = /directory/youwant/to/sms/sent/
ErrorSMSPath = /directory/youwant/to/sms/error/

InboxFormat=detail
OutboxFormat=detail
~~~

Note that **you must use the format `detail`** and service `file`**.

Now, you can test the setup using `gammu-smsd-inject`

~~~sh
$ gammu-smsd-inject TEXT +33NUMBER -text "This is a test !"
~~~

A file should be created in the outbox directory.
Soon it will be send and the file will be moved to the Sent directory.

If so, congratulation ! You have a working gammu setup.
Lets now install mesms to manage your SMS directory.

### Install mesms

Quite easy. It's a C software, you need gcc, make and git.

~~~sh
$ git clone https://git.ache.one/mesms
$ cd mesms
$ make
$ sudo make install
~~~

Note: Theire is a AUR package. `yay -S mesms-git` should work too on Arch Linux.

Now, you have to make a config directory. It should be `~/.mesmsrc`.

~/.mesmsrc:

~~~
SMS_INBOX=/????/sms/inbox/
SMS_SENTBOX=/????/sms/sent/
SMS_OUTBOX=/????/sms/outbox/
MMS_DIR=/tmp
CONTACT_FILENAME=/home/user/.contacts.csv
~~~

Now you can execute mesms !

Enjoy !
