hex encode it. instead of eg. "Gnokii" send the hex value of each 
char: "476E6F6B6969"

uuencode it

SMS can be sent in 8 bit mode. use -8 as option to gnokii --sendsms. 
this should work flawless because gnokii converts the data to PDU
format (which is hex encoded) so no trouble between phone and
gnokii can arise. so

cat file_with_encypted_data | gnokii --sendsms <phonenumber> -8

should do the trick.

you can't send non-printable  chars in text mode!
