Subject: [PATCH] Add Twitter back into Emacs

Shame that I can't get Telega working at the moment.

+* Introduction
+The following applications are not really needed. I alternate between trying to /stay in Emacs/ taking advantage of the consistent interface, and simply using a stand-alone app on my Workday computer.
+** Twitter
+The venerable [[https://github.com/hayamiz/twittering-mode/tree/master][twittering-mode]] allows me to follow all the twits.
+#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
+  (use-package twittering-mode
+    :init
+    (setq twittering-use-master-password t
+          epa-pinentry-mode 'loopback)
+    :config
+    (defalias 'epa--decode-coding-string 'decode-coding-string))
+#+END_SRC
+** Telega
+I'm thinking the [[https://zevlg.github.io/telega.el/][Telega package]] would be better than Bitlbee for Telegram communication.
+
+#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :tangle no
+(use-package telega
+  :commands (telega)
+  :defer t)
+#+END_SRC
+For some reason, you need [[https://github.com/Fanael/rainbow-identifiers][rainbow-identifiers]] to work, oh, I guess the docs state this.
+
+*Note:* Turning this off as it needs version 1.7.7 of =tdlib=, and that isn't easily available on my Mac. Maybe I may enable this on my Linux system.
