+ZNC Push via Telegram
+=====================
+
+This section contains the specific steps to configure for [Telegram][] after you install the
+module by following the above steps.
+
+* First of all, you need to have a telegram account.
+* Talk to [BotFather][] to create a new bot and get an api key.
+* Create a chat with the bot and say something in the chat.
+* Use browser to connect to https://api.telegram.org/bot[apikey]/getUpdates (replace the apikey with
+the key generated by BotFather). You should see messages sent from you, and there will be several
+id fields in the reply. We'll use the one in the chat session.
+* set service to 'telegram': <code>/msg *push set service telegram</code>
+* set secret to the **api key**: <code>/msg *push set secret your-api-key</code>
+* set target to chat ID: <code>/msg *push set target your-chat-id</code>
