    -- Subj: BTW, in Fidonet there is a nice thing - the list of Fidonet echos --

    Thank you. This message helped fix a bug in the code. ;)

    Good. I seem to attract or trigger anomalies.


    It's done automatically ...Then that file will show up in the GroupInfo section.

    Good. I understood what this is about. This is not an option. Some groups have too many files.

    True. The old TGLISTyymm. TXT files would start to look cluttered as they accumulate. But maybe as moderators, we can simply delete the old message and the corresponding file in the Group Info panel will be deleted too? I'll try that next month.


    It can just respond to the good old command %LIST. ;)

    How do you mean? Are you saying that a telegram user can construct a netmail message to Fido2telebot and address it to your areafix with the %LIST command?

    Wow! You did it beautifully. Thank you.

    It is the same list and design that I posted in FIDONEWS, FIDOGAZETTE and ECHO_ADS a month ago. I guess you did not see those.

    Anyway.. The first posting of that list seemed to stir up some flurry of conversation in Z1C. :) But, I heard that as quickly as it began, it snuffed itself out within a few days.

    BTW, I think we need a document that summarizes the commands and command symbols that are available.

    Hope this doesn't work. :)
    Just in the chat with Fido2telebot write %HELP or %LIST. I think it won't be difficult to implement.

    Have nice nights.

    That sounds like a very good idea! Afterall, the Fido2telegram bot is like the presence of your BBS in the group - we may as well be able to "talk" to it. :)

    I suppose to make this possible only in chat with Fido2telebot. However, you are right. It will be convenient to contact the bot directly in the group, because no password required.

    Have nice nights.
