Contributing

Pull requests are welcome. For major changes, please open an issue first to discuss what you would like to change.

Please find the chat.txt file as a sample chat file. I’ve intentionally added two media files, two links and multiple line messages in this file. Files and Links are of two kinds each.

Please make sure to update the tests as appropriate.
