- Just talk to [BotFather](https://telegram.me/botfather) and follow a few simple steps. Once you've created a bot and received your authorization token, copy it for later
## Configure `telme`
Simply run `$ telme --init` and follow the easy steps. You will need the bot token at this stage.
This will help you generate a `.telmeconfig` file in your home directory. You can always run `--init` again to override values or just edit the file yourself.
## Examples:
###### Simple message
```
$ telme --m "Message to send"
```
###### Task message
Task messages are a simple way to receive a message from your bot once a command has been finished. It will also let you know if you had any errors.
