# This script will download all messages from the CAS API and concatenate them into one file.
# The file will be saved in the same directory as this script and will be named 'messages.txt'.
# The script requires jq to be installed (https://stedolan.github.io/jq/).
# Loading all messages from CAS will take a long time, hours or even days, depending on the number of messages.
# The resulting file can be used as a generic spam sample file fot tg-spam bot.
