The public API allows Stas to build a tosser/scanner        that understands that format. That's not much different than        a sysop using whatever tosser/scanner that can work with Jam/        Squish/MSG.              Meanwhile, we use the Telegram app as a client that is not        much different than using an nntp, telnet, or ssh client.              --        ../|ug              --- OpenXP 5.0.47        * Origin: Mobile?
