        Iterator over the messages for the given chat.

        The default order is from newest to oldest, but this
        behaviour can be changed with the `reverse` parameter.

        If either `search`, `filter` or `from_user` are provided,
        :tl:`messages.Search` will be used instead of :tl:`messages.getHistory`.

        .. note::

            Telegram's flood wait limit for :tl:`GetHistoryRequest` seems to
            be around 30 seconds per 10 requests, therefore a sleep of 1
            second is the default for this limit (or above).

        Arguments
            entity (`entity`):
                The entity from whom to retrieve the message history.

                It may be `None` to perform a global search, or
                to get messages by their ID from no particular chat.
                Note that some of the offsets will not work if this
                is the case.

                Note that if you want to perform a global search,
                you **must** set a non-empty `search` string, a `filter`.
                or `from_user`.

            limit (`int` | `None`, optional):
                Number of messages to be retrieved. Due to limitations with
                the API retrieving more than 3000 messages will take longer
                than half a minute (or even more based on previous calls).

                The limit may also be `None`, which would eventually return
                the whole history.

            offset_date (`datetime`):
                Offset date (messages *previous* to this date will be
                retrieved). Exclusive.

            offset_id (`int`):
                Offset message ID (only messages *previous* to the given
                ID will be retrieved). Exclusive.

            max_id (`int`):
                All the messages with a higher (newer) ID or equal to this will
                be excluded.

            min_id (`int`):
                All the messages with a lower (older) ID or equal to this will
                be excluded.

            add_offset (`int`):
                Additional message offset (all of the specified offsets +
                this offset = older messages).

            search (`str`):
                The string to be used as a search query.

            filter (:tl:`MessagesFilter` | `type`):
                The filter to use when returning messages. For instance,
                :tl:`InputMessagesFilterPhotos` would yield only messages
                containing photos.

            from_user (`entity`):
                Only messages from this entity will be returned.

            wait_time (`int`):
                Wait time (in seconds) between different
                :tl:`GetHistoryRequest`. Use this parameter to avoid hitting
                the ``FloodWaitError`` as needed. If left to `None`, it will
                default to 1 second only if the limit is higher than 3000.

                If the ``ids`` parameter is used, this time will default
                to 10 seconds only if the amount of IDs is higher than 300.

            ids (`int`, `list`):
                A single integer ID (or several IDs) for the message that
                should be returned. This parameter takes precedence over
                the rest (which will be ignored if this is set). This can
                for instance be used to get the message with ID 123 from
                a channel. Note that if the message doesn't exist, `None`
                will appear in its place, so that zipping the list of IDs
                with the messages can match one-to-one.

                .. note::

                    At the time of writing, Telegram will **not** return
                    :tl:`MessageEmpty` for :tl:`InputMessageReplyTo` IDs that
                    failed (i.e. the message is not replying to any, or is
                    replying to a deleted message). This means that it is
                    **not** possible to match messages one-by-one, so be
                    careful if you use non-integers in this parameter.

            reverse (`bool`, optional):
                If set to `True`, the messages will be returned in reverse
                order (from oldest to newest, instead of the default newest
                to oldest). This also means that the meaning of `offset_id`
                and `offset_date` parameters is reversed, although they will
                still be exclusive. `min_id` becomes equivalent to `offset_id`
                instead of being `max_id` as well since messages are returned
                in ascending order.

                You cannot use this if both `entity` and `ids` are `None`.

            reply_to (`int`, optional):
                If set to a message ID, the messages that reply to this ID
                will be returned. This feature is also known as comments in
                posts of broadcast channels, or viewing threads in groups.

                This feature can only be used in broadcast channels and their
                linked megagroups. Using it in a chat or private conversation
                will result in ``telethon.errors.PeerIdInvalidError`` to occur.

                When using this parameter, the ``filter`` and ``search``
                parameters have no effect, since Telegram's API doesn't
                support searching messages in replies.

                .. note::

                    This feature is used to get replies to a message in the
                    *discussion* group. If the same broadcast channel sends
                    a message and replies to it itself, that reply will not
                    be included in the results.

            scheduled (`bool`, optional):
                If set to `True`, messages which are scheduled will be returned.
                All other parameter will be ignored for this, except `entity`.

        Yields
            Instances of `Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`.

        Sends a message to the specified user, chat or channel.

        The default parse mode is the same as the official applications
        (a custom flavour of markdown). ``**bold**, `code` or __italic__``
        are available. In addition you can send ``[links](https://example.com)``
        and ``[mentions](@username)`` (or using IDs like in the Bot API:
        ``[mention](tg://user?id=123456789)``) and ``pre`` blocks with three
        backticks.

        Sending a ``/start`` command with a parameter (like ``?start=data``)
        is also done through this method. Simply send ``'/start data'`` to
        the bot.

        See also `Message.respond() <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message.respond>`
        and `Message.reply() <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message.reply>`.

        Arguments
            entity (`entity`):
                To who will it be sent.

            message (`str` | `Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`):
                The message to be sent, or another message object to resend.

                The maximum length for a message is 35,000 bytes or 4,096
                characters. Longer messages will not be sliced automatically,
                and you should slice them manually if the text to send is
                longer than said length.

            reply_to (`int` | `Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`, optional):
                Whether to reply to a message or not. If an integer is provided,
                it should be the ID of the message that it should reply to.

            attributes (`list`, optional):
                Optional attributes that override the inferred ones, like
                :tl:`DocumentAttributeFilename` and so on.

            parse_mode (`object`, optional):
                See the `TelegramClient.parse_mode
                <telethon.client.messageparse.MessageParseMethods.parse_mode>`
                property for allowed values. Markdown parsing will be used by
                default.

            formatting_entities (`list`, optional):
                A list of message formatting entities. When provided, the ``parse_mode`` is ignored.

            link_preview (`bool`, optional):
                Should the link preview be shown?

            file (`file`, optional):
                Sends a message with a file attached (e.g. a photo,
                video, audio or document). The ``message`` may be empty.

            thumb (`str` | `bytes` | `file`, optional):
                Optional JPEG thumbnail (for documents). **Telegram will
                ignore this parameter** unless you pass a ``.jpg`` file!
                The file must also be small in dimensions and in disk size.
                Successful thumbnails were files below 20kB and 320x320px.
                Width/height and dimensions/size ratios may be important.
                For Telegram to accept a thumbnail, you must provide the
                dimensions of the underlying media through ``attributes=``
                with :tl:`DocumentAttributesVideo` or by installing the
                optional ``hachoir`` dependency.

            force_document (`bool`, optional):
                Whether to send the given file as a document or not.

            clear_draft (`bool`, optional):
                Whether the existing draft should be cleared or not.

            buttons (`list`, `custom.Button <telethon.tl.custom.button.Button>`, :tl:`KeyboardButton`):
                The matrix (list of lists), row list or button to be shown
                after sending the message. This parameter will only work if
                you have signed in as a bot. You can also pass your own
                :tl:`ReplyMarkup` here.

                All the following limits apply together:

                * There can be 100 buttons at most (any more are ignored).
                * There can be 8 buttons per row at most (more are ignored).
                * The maximum callback data per button is 64 bytes.
                * The maximum data that can be embedded in total is just
                  over 4KB, shared between inline callback data and text.

            silent (`bool`, optional):
                Whether the message should notify people in a broadcast
                channel or not. Defaults to `False`, which means it will
                notify them. Set it to `True` to alter this behaviour.

            background (`bool`, optional):
                Whether the message should be send in background.

            supports_streaming (`bool`, optional):
                Whether the sent video supports streaming or not. Note that
                Telegram only recognizes as streamable some formats like MP4,
                and others like AVI or MKV will not work. You should convert
                these to MP4 before sending if you want them to be streamable.
                Unsupported formats will result in ``VideoContentTypeError``.

            schedule (`hints.DateLike`, optional):
                If set, the message won't send immediately, and instead
                it will be scheduled to be automatically sent at a later
                time.

            comment_to (`int` | `Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`, optional):
                Similar to ``reply_to``, but replies in the linked group of a
                broadcast channel instead (effectively leaving a "comment to"
                the specified message).

                This parameter takes precedence over ``reply_to``. If there is
                no linked chat, `telethon.errors.sgIdInvalidError` is raised.

            nosound_video (`bool`, optional):
                Only applicable when sending a video file without an audio
                track. If set to ``True``, the video will be displayed in
                Telegram as a video. If set to ``False``, Telegram will attempt
                to display the video as an animated gif. (It may still display
                as a video due to other factors.) The value is ignored if set
                on non-video files. This is set to ``True`` for albums, as gifs
                cannot be sent in albums.

        Returns
            The sent `custom.Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`.

        Forwards the given messages to the specified entity.

        If you want to "forward" a message without the forward header
        (the "forwarded from" text), you should use `send_message` with
        the original message instead. This will send a copy of it.

        See also `Message.forward_to() <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message.forward_to>`.

        Arguments
            entity (`entity`):
                To which entity the message(s) will be forwarded.

            messages (`list` | `int` | `Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`):
                The message(s) to forward, or their integer IDs.

            from_peer (`entity`):
                If the given messages are integer IDs and not instances
                of the ``Message`` class, this *must* be specified in
                order for the forward to work. This parameter indicates
                the entity from which the messages should be forwarded.

            silent (`bool`, optional):
                Whether the message should notify people with sound or not.
                Defaults to `False` (send with a notification sound unless
                the person has the chat muted). Set it to `True` to alter
                this behaviour.

            background (`bool`, optional):
                Whether the message should be forwarded in background.

            with_my_score (`bool`, optional):
                Whether forwarded should contain your game score.

            as_album (`bool`, optional):
                This flag no longer has any effect.

            schedule (`hints.DateLike`, optional):
                If set, the message(s) won't forward immediately, and
                instead they will be scheduled to be automatically sent
                at a later time.

        Returns
            The list of forwarded `Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`,
            or a single one if a list wasn't provided as input.

            Note that if all messages are invalid (i.e. deleted) the call
            will fail with ``MessageIdInvalidError``. If only some are
            invalid, the list will have `None` instead of those messages.

        Edits the given message to change its text or media.

        Arguments
            entity (`entity` | `Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`):
                From which chat to edit the message. This can also be
                the message to be edited, and the entity will be inferred
                from it, so the next parameter will be assumed to be the
                message text.

                You may also pass a :tl:`InputBotInlineMessageID` or :tl:`InputBotInlineMessageID64`,
                which is the only way to edit messages that were sent
                after the user selects an inline query result.

            message (`int` | `Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>` | `str`):
                The ID of the message (or `Message
                <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>` itself) to be edited.
                If the `entity` was a `Message
                <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`, then this message
                will be treated as the new text.

            text (`str`, optional):
                The new text of the message. Does nothing if the `entity`
                was a `Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`.

            parse_mode (`object`, optional):
                See the `TelegramClient.parse_mode
                <telethon.client.messageparse.MessageParseMethods.parse_mode>`
                property for allowed values. Markdown parsing will be used by
                default.

            attributes (`list`, optional):
                Optional attributes that override the inferred ones, like
                :tl:`DocumentAttributeFilename` and so on.

            formatting_entities (`list`, optional):
                A list of message formatting entities. When provided, the ``parse_mode`` is ignored.

            link_preview (`bool`, optional):
                Should the link preview be shown?

            file (`str` | `bytes` | `file` | `media`, optional):
                The file object that should replace the existing media
                in the message.

            thumb (`str` | `bytes` | `file`, optional):
                Optional JPEG thumbnail (for documents). **Telegram will
                ignore this parameter** unless you pass a ``.jpg`` file!
                The file must also be small in dimensions and in disk size.
                Successful thumbnails were files below 20kB and 320x320px.
                Width/height and dimensions/size ratios may be important.
                For Telegram to accept a thumbnail, you must provide the
                dimensions of the underlying media through ``attributes=``
                with :tl:`DocumentAttributesVideo` or by installing the
                optional ``hachoir`` dependency.

            force_document (`bool`, optional):
                Whether to send the given file as a document or not.

            buttons (`list`, `custom.Button <telethon.tl.custom.button.Button>`, :tl:`KeyboardButton`):
                The matrix (list of lists), row list or button to be shown
                after sending the message. This parameter will only work if
                you have signed in as a bot. You can also pass your own
                :tl:`ReplyMarkup` here.

            supports_streaming (`bool`, optional):
                Whether the sent video supports streaming or not. Note that
                Telegram only recognizes as streamable some formats like MP4,
                and others like AVI or MKV will not work. You should convert
                these to MP4 before sending if you want them to be streamable.
                Unsupported formats will result in ``VideoContentTypeError``.

            schedule (`hints.DateLike`, optional):
                If set, the message won't be edited immediately, and instead
                it will be scheduled to be automatically edited at a later
                time.

                Note that this parameter will have no effect if you are
                trying to edit a message that was sent via inline bots.

        Returns
            The edited `Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`,
            unless `entity` was a :tl:`InputBotInlineMessageID` or :tl:`InputBotInlineMessageID64` in which
            case this method returns a boolean.

        Raises
            ``MessageAuthorRequiredError`` if you're not the author of the
            message but tried editing it anyway.

            ``MessageNotModifiedError`` if the contents of the message were
            not modified at all.

            ``MessageIdInvalidError`` if the ID of the message is invalid
            (the ID itself may be correct, but the message with that ID
            cannot be edited). For example, when trying to edit messages
            with a reply markup (or clear markup) this error will be raised.

        .. warning::

            This method does **not** validate that the message IDs belong
            to the chat that you passed! It's possible for the method to
            delete messages from different private chats and small group
            chats at once, so make sure to pass the right IDs.

        Arguments
            entity (`entity`):
                From who the message will be deleted. This can actually
                be `None` for normal chats, but **must** be present
                for channels and megagroups.

            message_ids (`list` | `int` | `Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`):
                The IDs (or ID) or messages to be deleted.

            revoke (`bool`, optional):
                Whether the message should be deleted for everyone or not.
                By default it has the opposite behaviour of official clients,
                and it will delete the message for everyone.

                `Since 24 March 2019
                <https://telegram.org/blog/unsend-privacy-emoji>`_, you can
                also revoke messages of any age (i.e. messages sent long in
                the past) the *other* person sent in private conversations
                (and of course your messages too).

                Disabling this has no effect on channels or megagroups,
                since it will unconditionally delete the message for everyone.

        Returns
            A list of :tl:`AffectedMessages`, each item being the result
            for the delete calls of the messages in chunks of 100 each.
