    Hi!

    Updated version of tg_BSE. Added user profile. Over time, unregistered users (who do not have their own profile) will not be able to send messages to Fido. So far, tg_BSE only warns about this. Perhaps, in the future, this will not apply to the open Telegram groups.
    As always, please test. ;)

    Heve a nice carrot!

    What is the user profile? I don't see anything different in the fido header. How does the user test it? Do you mean there is there a %COMMAND option to the f2t bot?

    Yes. Use %UserProfile in @Fido2Telebot chat, use %Help for more details.

    I see one tiny error in the guide:

    You have:

    Chatting with Fido2telebot:
    %HEL - this text.

    The second line should probably be:

    Not. This is all possible now. Haven't you tried it yet? ;)

    I did try. But the help doesn't describe the sytax to change %conclusion.

    I sent:

    %conclusion CIAO!

    ..but the subsequent %userprofile command returned an empty line for %conclusion.

    Should I have sent something like:

    %conclusion "CIAO!" with my string in quotes?

    The syntax is:

    Ah.. got it. Maybe it can be rewritten to read:

    %UserProfile (with subsequent commands in the same message) - register or change your user profile

    Eg. To add or change your tagline, send:

    %userprofile
    %tagline Your tagline goes here<CR>

    OR.. since the %commands seem to all be quite unique sofar:

    %HELP
    %LIST
    %QUERY
    %LINKED
    %UNLINKED
    %UserProfile
    %RealName
    %FidoAddr
    %TagLine

    ..maybe you can make it so that we only need to enter a minimum of the first three chars of the command:

    %LIS
    %QUE
    %LIN
    %UNL
    %Use
    %Rea
    %Fid
    %Tag
    %Gre
    %Con

    ? :D That would accommodate users with their smartphones a little better.

    I said THREE chars. Sending in something like this:

    %Use
    %Tag May tagline!
    %Gre Hello World..
    %Con ..Bye for now.

    ..is a lot less typing than:

    %Useerprofile
    %Tagline May tagline!
    %Greeting Hello World..
    %Conclusion ..Bye for now.

    Putting it another way, maybe have it so that the lowercase chars are optional:

    %HELp
    %LISt
    %QUEry
    %LINked
    %UNLinked
    %USErname
    %REAlname
    %FIDoaddress
    %TAGline
    %GREeting
    %CONclusion

    I am just thinking of their usage from a smartphone. Having a command fail due to typos near the END of the commands, something like:

    %unlinkd
    %usernm
    %realnem
    %fidoadress #######
    %taglinee #######################
    %greatings #####################
    %concluiosn ##################

    ..would be a tad frustrating.

    BUT, if your system can just accept the first THREE chars after the %, then that would be cool.

    Is that the same as to heave a carrot? :D
