There are text messaging programs for the PC, though I don't know what
they're like to use, or how they work.
Examples from a Google search are....

Interesting question Jim, re. texting from landlines. I'll bet it can be done
via computer. Let's hope someone pops up and says that you can - and how.

: Hi List,
:
: I've just re-joined the list and I thought I'd start off with a question
: about sending text messages.
:
: Friends and family send text messages to me via my BT land line and
: sometimes I think it would be nice to respond likewise.
:
: I don't possess software which makes mobile phones accessible. So, the
: question is how as a vi person, can I send text messages either to a land
: line or a mobile phone, and will it be costly?
:
: Cheers
