A fork basically means that I took a snapshot of boatbod's source
code, and started making my own changes to it (in my copy). If/when
boatbod makes further changes to his code, they will not be applied to
mine (unless I merge them) ... so we've gone off in separate
directions (forked). I'm not currently planning on maintaining an
ongoing fork - it's just a convenient way to share the code for anyone
that wants to give it a spin right now.

(Assuming you're running boatbod's fork now) at some point in the
beginning, you did something like:

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/boatbod/op25

If you want to try out my (temporary) fork, you could move your clone
of boatbod's aside, and clone mine in its place:

cd ~
mv op25 op25-boatbod
git clone https://github.com/dseven/op25
cd ~/op25
../install.sh

If you placed any of your own files inside your clone of boatbod's
fork, you'd have to copy them over to your new clone of mine.
Personally, I recommend NOT placing any of your own files inside the
git repos for this reason (I keep all of my scripts, whitelist files,
etc, in ~/my-op25/)

What is a "fork", "pull request", or a "commit"? When you click on "Update README", you get a short thing of text, but it has line numbers and plus signs.

Like say I wanna listen to TG ID 1000. Is there a way to just type 1000 while the program is running and make it hold on 1000?
