After some discussion, storing the session ID is not needed at all. It can always start off as a new random 8-byte-long number, also restarting the sequence number at 0. This should prevent some seqno too low errors. Also, saving the time offset could cause more trouble than fixing them, so that has also been removed. |

⭐️ Thanks **everyone** who has starred the project, it means a lot!
**Telethon** is Telegram client implementation in **Python 3** which uses
the latest available API of Telegram. Remember to use **pip3** to install!
Installing
----------
.. code:: sh
pip install telethon
Creating a client
-----------------
.. code:: python
from telethon import TelegramClient
# These example values won't work. You must get your own api_id and
# api_hash from https://my.telegram.org, under API Development.
api_id = 12345
api_hash = '0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef'
phone = '+34600000000'
client = TelegramClient('session_name', api_id, api_hash)
client.connect()
# If you already have a previous 'session_name.session' file, skip this.
client.sign_in(phone=phone)
me = client.sign_in(code=77777) # Put whatever code you received here.
Doing stuff
-----------
.. code:: python
print(me.stringify())
client.send_message('username', 'Hello! Talking to you from Telethon')
client.send_file('username', '/home/myself/Pictures/holidays.jpg')
client.download_profile_photo(me)
total, messages, senders = client.get_message_history('username')
client.download_media(messages[0])
