Plaintext iMessage Text Scheduler

What it does

I was frustrated that there's no native way of scheduling text messages on the iPhone, I am also a big fan of plaintext, so, boom. This is free and open source, approximately 100 lines of python. Made the front page of YCombinator News (hackernews) yesterday!
