WARNING

I created this fork with AI support, which means there may be some bugs that I haven't spotted.

Changes in this fork

• The Telethon library has been updated to the latest version.
• The code where Telethon was used has been rewritten to the latest asynchronous code.
• The ability to select emoji has been added. To do this, use "^E".
• The application launch method has been changed.
• Added some shortcut tips at the bottom

The application was tested on Python 3.12.
