Description: # sendtelegram
        
        Current version: 0.2.0
        
        A Telegram replacement for sendmail.
        
        `sendtelegram` uses a Telegram bot to send messages to a specific user. It reads from `stdin`, splits the input text into messages of at most MAX_MSG_LEN
        characters (default: 4096) and send them
        using the Telegram API.
        
        `sendtelegram` adheres to the 12 factor principles to manage settings.
        
        It requires two environment variables:
        * SENDTELEGRAM_API_TOKEN: the Telegram API token.
        * SENDTELEGRAM_CHAT_ID: id of the chat between the bot and the target user.
        
        
        ## Usage
        
        ```
        usage: sendtelegram [-h] [-m MAX_MSG_LEN]
        
        optional arguments:
          -h, --help            show this help message and exit
          -m MAX_MSG_LEN, --max-msg-len MAX_MSG_LEN
                                Max number of characters of a Telegram message (default: 4096)
        ```
        
        ## Examples
        
        Sending a text file as a telegram message:
        ```
        cat README.md | sendtelegram
        ```
