How do I use the displaysms command?

Hi,

I need to create an outward SMS which contains emoji. Unfortunately, 
this is not currently possible with python-gammu - see 
https://github.com/gammu/python-gammu/issues/16 . However, Michal 
indicates that it is possible using gammu directly.

Therefore, I wonder whether it's possible to generate a PDU string using 
gammu from the command line, if I provide the text, destination number, 
SMSC number etc as parameters. The Gammu manual indicates that this 
might be possible using the displaysms command, but the manual directs 
me to the description of the sendsms command, which then partially 
directs me to savesms. It's not very clear to me how to use the 
displaysms command, and I'm having no success trying this for myself. An 
example would help considerably.

It should also be noted that I am not using Gammu to queue, send or 
store SMS messages - there is no interaction with an actual modem. I 
just need to generate the PDU string, which will then be passed to 
another application on another server. Therefore, there's no modem 
configuration file (although I'm happy to define a dummy modem if 
necessary).

Can anyone please offer me some guidance on how to do this?

Thank you.
