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

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

$Updates = $MadelineProto->messages->editMessage(no_webpage: $Bool, invert_media: $Bool, peer: $InputPeer, id: $int, message: 'string', media: $InputMedia, reply_markup: $ReplyMarkup, entities: [$MessageEntity, $MessageEntity], parse_mode: 'string', schedule_date: $int, quick_reply_shortcut_id: $int, );

Usage of reply_markup

You can provide bot API reply_markup objects here.
