Is there a way to command the bot to recognize text that ought to be fixed-length ARRIVING from the Fido side?
..or is that an impossible/bad idea?
The bookended use of * _ and / have been well adopted for:
Bold = *bold*
Underline = _underline_
Italic = /italic/
Perhaps you can invent a control symbol for fixed-length?
Suggestion, the "=" could work.
eg:
Fixed-length = =fixed-length=
Is there a way to command the bot to recognize text that
ought to be fixed-length ARRIVING from the Fido side?
Do you mean monospaced font?
..or is that an impossible/bad idea?
I have already experimented with this in the direction
Fido->Telegram. It turned out not pretty, if you remember.
I haven't implemented it yet in the direction
Fido->Telegram. For single words this is not difficult,
and for large chunks of text there can be false positives.
