[asterisk-users] SendText() & displaying text messages on a SIPhandset's screen

[Guillermo Roditi]

The phone does get the message. Immediately after SendText() happens in the
conf the little message light lights up and if I click it then I get the
message. I was however looking for a way to write to thephone's display as
if it were a console. The only way I've found so far has been with sipsak,
which wasn't really working out too well for me so I was hoping I could do
this from inside asterisk rather than execl()ing programs from whithin
asterisk.
