Example

import fbchat

client = fbchat.Client("YOUR_ID", "YOUR_PASSWORD")

friend = friends[0]
sent = client.send(friend.uid, "Your Message")
if sent:
    print("Message sent successfully!")

Getting last messages sent

last_messages = client.getThreadInfo(friend.uid,0)
last_messages.reverse()  # messages come in reversed order
