### MadelineProto Example ([now async for huge speed and parallelism!](https://docs.madelineproto.xyz/docs/ASYNC.html)):


```php
if (!file_exists('madeline.php')) {
    copy('https://phar.madelineproto.xyz/madeline.php', 'madeline.php');
}
define('MADELINE_BRANCH', '');
include 'madeline.php';

$MadelineProto = new \danog\MadelineProto\API('session.madeline');
$MadelineProto->start();

$Bool = $MadelineProto->messages->setInlineBotResults(['gallery' => Bool, 'private' => Bool, 'query_id' => long, 'results' => [InputBotInlineResult, InputBotInlineResult], 'cache_time' => int, 'next_offset' => 'string', 'switch_pm' => InlineBotSwitchPM, ]);
```

Or, if you're into Lua:

```lua
Bool = messages.setInlineBotResults({gallery=Bool, private=Bool, query_id=long, results={InputBotInlineResult}, cache_time=int, next_offset='string', switch_pm=InlineBotSwitchPM, })
```
