Toggle pin by sms about gprs_sim900 HOT 4 CLOSED

@Welsyntoffie I think you change examples/GPRS_ReadSMS like below,

int sms_pin = 6;
void loop() {
    
    /* omitted code */

    pinMode(sms_pin, OUTPUT);
    digitalWrite(sms_pin, LOW);
}
void loop() {
   messageIndex = gprs.isSMSunread();
   if (messageIndex > 0) { //At least, there is one UNREAD SMS            
      Serial.print("Recieved Message.");
      digitalWrite(sms_pin);
      delay(200);
      digitalWrite(sms_pin);
   }

Not exactly what I had in mind. I receive alot of advertising messages. So any sms will toggle the pin.

What I had in mind was to send "1234 Relay1 On" to the gsm shield.
Then read the message, check if the password is a match, then read on, if sms text Relay1 On then sms_pin = HIGH.
If sms text Relay1 Off then sms_pin = LOW.

@Welsyntoffie Something like this should help. It just how to parse a string in Arduino and has not really something to do with this library.

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
  
  int password = 0;
  char device[20] = {0};
  unsigned int deviceIndex = 0;

  char smsStr[] = "1254 Relay 1";

  sscanf(smsStr, "%4u %19s %u", &password, device, &deviceIndex);

  Serial.println(password);
  Serial.println(device);
  Serial.println(deviceIndex);
}

void loop() {
  
}

This worked for me. Thank you...
Modified the smsread example.

'''
String messagestring;

void setup() {

pinmode(13, OUTPUT);

void loop() {

// added following below the last Serial print of the example

messagestring = String(message); //creates a string from an array
if (messagestring.indexOf("Password") >= 0) {
if (messagestring.indexOf("Relay1 On") >= 0) {
digitalWrite(13, !digitalRead(13));
}
}

This solved my mission and seems easy.
