  • TgM robot = tosser

    From Stas Mishchenkov@2:460/5858 to August Abolins on Wed Oct 14 13:17:34 2020
    Hi, August!

    12 окт 20 23:50, August Abolins -> Brother Rabbit:

    But while the message is on the TgM servers, it *can* be edited. The reason why it can't be edited (and I don't expect it to be) is when
    the robot grabs it.

    You're wrong. A new message of a different type will be created, which will then be displayed in client applications instead of it.

    Have nice nights.

    Hi Stas!

    Oh.. so after a TgM message is re-edited, the "different type" contains instructions and other things to the client apps to indicate that it's been re-edited?

    I thought that a TgM message would be in a nice and neat pure-text container for your Fidobot to grab. Sounds like there is are a lot of issues to deal with in re-edited messages.
