[Feature Request] Add option for sending read receipt only upon interaction #55

Closed d99kris closed 2 years ago

d99kris commented 2 years ago

Add configuration option for only sending message read receipts upon user interaction (enabling user to read messages, without indicating it to the other party).

Suggested by @jonnieey in nchat telegram channel.

By setting mark_read_on_view=0 in ~/.nchat/ui.conf nchat will only send read receipts upon page down when there are no more messages, or when sending message/file in a chat with unread messages.
