Soon Linux desktop users would have another easy way to send SMS messages. No need to reach the SMS Server Tools and murder with the console. Simply click on it and launch a new version of Skype, with the number indicated 1.13. Developed for some time by the Microsoft brand, based on Skype Web technologies for Linux has been because ultimately, this is one of the most awaited by community functions.
Updated version of the electronic library
This SMS service works as expected, free of those SMS messages that would not be sent, you need to have Skype credits. If you have them, just in the chat window to change the option to send messages via Skype to send SMS and enter the phone number of the other party. This, of course, not all changes. The updated version of the electronic library, based on what created this new cross-platform Skype to the latest version 1.4.7, added the possibility of transforming a conversation by talking one by one in a conversation of Group, improved error reporting and added support for revocation of authentication tokens. The asset is exploited significantly faster, you can tell it is even better than the old 32-bit native client for Linux.
The choice of Linux as a development platform
The new Skype for Linux, of course, always in terms of much lower features offer an official Windows version (and even the former client to Linux, written using Qt.) However, it is a well-scaled experience with creating Of a universal Skype platform on all systems, written in JavaScript library Electron. Hence the choice of Linux as a development platform, you can expect that its users are much more eager to take the tests than, for example Spoiled Mac users, for whom the official Skype client is pampered in all directions. Microsoft offered this time the DEB and RPM packages. Unfortunately, in the case of RPM installation are problems on both the Fedora and Mandriva (as for the gnome-keyring version).
As this is an alpha version, however, would not complain for all Linux users who need to use Skype. By the way, this is a promise that would not be excluded from the popular communicator.
