In this code snippet, we are creating a Telegram bot using the python-telegram-bot library. The bot has two main functionalities:

  1. Upon receiving the /start command, it will send a welcome message to the user.
  2. Whenever a user sends a text message (presumed to be a file URL), it will trigger the download_file function to download the file and send it back to the user. Make sure to replace 'YOUR_BOT_TOKEN' with your actual Telegram bot token. You need to implement the file download logic within the download_file function. You can use libraries like requests or urllib to download files.
