Comunicating from your Linux machine?

I expect not.  When I ran telegram-cli earlier an import function for
the author of telegram was one of the failures and that oughtn't have
happened since that import was for the original author of telegram who's
address can be found in the README.md file in the source of
telegram-cli.  The import address had strange coding with lots of
backslash characters too.  What I need is a test set of commands that
work on the standard version of telegram I can try on this version of
the package.  That way, I can speed up what I do on this end and you
will have any successes and failures to examine on your end.
