Add reminder bookmarks #3

Open luringens opened 6 years ago

Reminders currently just send whatever message you pass to it. Usually, !remindme in reddit is used to come back to something at a later date, which isn't possible in Discord as you can't link to messages.

However, if the bot replies to the !remindme command with a random string, the reminder message can include a message along the lines of You asked me to remind you of something in [server] - search for [randomstring] to find it! in order to easily return to it.

The message may or may not include a search string for limiting search results to messages from the bot or in a specific channel - this is up for discussion.

Another (more complicated) feature could be to have the bot ask for which message to send a copy of in the reminder, where the message is selected by adding an emoji to the message to copy.

Sidenote that should probably be put in another issue: reaction emojis could also be used as a "Remind me too!" feature.
