While not perfect, Telegram is the best solution I've seen so far. :)

In other respects it may be better. I think the message S)earch
feature is amazing. So, it is relatively easy to track down a
particular post.
Stas' message-find on the FTN side is pretty decent too.

I like that links in messages are managed in their on section called "Shared Links". And that too is S)earchable.
Photos (Files?) & Videos have their own sections too. It's a convenient accessible cloud storage for stuff.
BTW ... I was going to reply to this message with Telegram but most of
the last paragraph is missing. For some reason, it seems to have been truncated after "(Files?)".
Where do I find the "Shared Links" section?

I already know about the "ampersant" problem. This is a drawback of the currently used method of sending messages to Telegram. It will be solved soon.
Have nice nights.

Yeah, not many really good options. URLs in offline readers are in
the class of "ugly, but effective". :D Especially with Multimail's console interface it's a lot of mouse work - the keyboard shortcuts
don't work in Windows either. :(

I think we can be fairly confident that noone would want UUE
here.
The links work very nicely. Access to files on the TgM side
is very cool.

OpenXP doesn't have that problem! ;) The TAB key seeks out
anything that looks like a link in a message. When it lands
on the one you want, a tap on the C key copies the link to
clipboard. Then simply switch your browser to proceed.

I haven't messed around with UUE in decades. I doubt I'd remember how.
I can restore sending files from Telegram to Fido.. ..
Although, I strongly doubt that it will be better than
now in the form of URL.

I think URL is the lesser of two evils,
because UUE handling is even wrse in most FTN software. ;)

But I thought we already established that OpenXP might
not be sutable for me. )
This is not necessary to remember now. It is enough to know that
UUencoded files from all echo conferences that pass through my
node can be viewed at https://brorabbit.g0x.ru/uue/ ;)
That link works no problem with my point application here. So it works for me.

Anyone can improve this by using:

Too tosser specific and I can't see a way to pick up my file with my mail. ;)
Not at all. You can use it without tosser.

In the example of using the library, you can explicitly specify where
the decoded files will be created. It can be anywhere.

In our area some oane are also very fond of fried potatoes with fried onions and a little meat gravy, but no cheese. It is quite edible. This dish has no special name. Not often found in Crimea. It is rather
typical for Ukrainian cooking.
It's a pity, but yesterday my doctor explained to me in great detail
why I will never be able to try poutine. :(
