//! `messages.Search` runs server-side full-text search across the entire

//! history in one call.
//!
//! Run:
//!   cargo run --example search_messages
//!
//! Fill in API_ID, API_HASH, PHONE, PEER and QUERY below.

/// Chat to search in. "me" searches Saved Messages.
/// Any username, phone number, or integer peer ID works.
