 ## Usage of bashbot functions
 
+#### sending messages
+To send messages use the ```send_xxx_message``` functions.
+
+To send regular text without any markdown use:
+```bash
+send_text_message "${CHAT[ID]}" "lol"
+```
+To send text with markdown:
+```bash
+send_markdown_message "${CHAT[ID]}" "lol *bold*"
+```
+To send text with html:
+```bash
+send_html_message "${CHAT[ID]}" "lol <b>bold</b>"
+```
+
+To forward messages use the ```forward``` function:
+```bash
+forward "${CHAT[ID]}" "from_chat_id" "message_id"
+```
+
+If your Bot is Admin in a Chat you can delete every message, if not you can delete only your messages.
+To delete a message with a known ${MESSAGE[ID]} you can simple use:
+```bash
+delete_message "${CHAT[ID]}" "${MESSAGE[ID]}"
+```

 #### send_message
-To send messages use the ```send_message``` function:
+In addition there is a universal send_massage function which can output any type of message.
+This function is used to process output from external scrips like interactive chats or background jobs.  
+**For safety and performance reasons I recommend to use send_xxxx_message functions above for sending messages**
 ```bash
 send_message "${CHAT[ID]}" "lol"
