## Introduction to SZS, the SMS to Zephyr Relay
Barnowl is picky about formatting, so here are some examples.
This includes all your SMS <-> Zephyr messages in your personals and also colors your personal messages green.
- filter personal -c green ( class ^szs$ ) or ( isprivate ^true$ and ( not type ^zephyr$ or ( class ^message$ ) ) ) or ( class kusername ) or ( type admin )
+ filter personal -c green ( class ^szs$ ) or ( isprivate ^true$ and ( not type ^zephyr$ or ( class ^message$ ) ) )
To color all your SMS <-> Zephyr messages separately from your other personals messages, add another line that will override the coloring you gave it under the personal filter:
filter szs -c cyan ( class ^szs$ ) or ( sender daemon.webzephyr@ATHENA.MIT.EDU )
-So you'll have general personals in one color, and SMS <-> Zephyr messages in a separate color, both of which appear when you hit '[Alt-p]'.
+So you'll have general personals in one color, and SMS <-> Zephyr messages in a separate color, both of which appear when you hit `[Alt-p]`.
If you ever need to revert your personal filter, the default is:
- isprivate ^true$ and ( not type ^zephyr$ or ( class ^message ) )
+ isprivate ^true$ and ( not type ^zephyr$ or ( class ^message ) )
Now to reload your Barnowl configuration, in Barnowl, run
### Screen
If you are going to regularly send and receive text messages using the Barnowl client for Zephyr, you will probably want a Barnowl instance running 24/7 so that whoever texts you won't encounter a `user not subscribed` error and so that your text message conversations don't disappear each time you quit Barnowl.
-A good way to do this is to use screen and run it on the SIPB dialup machine, which allows you to run a Barnowl session within screen on the SIPB dialup machine that's theoretically up 24/7 (sadly outages do occur). See [UsingScreen](http://sipb-www.scripts.mit.edu/doc/wiki/UsingScreen) for more information; the basic idea is to `ssh` to `kusername@linux.mit.edu` and run `add kchen; owl-screen`, and in the future after `ssh`-ing to `kusername@linux.mit.edu` run 'screen -dr'.
