    First of all you make a bot whose multiple instances are to be run from the same server.
Suppose the bot is run by invoking main.py with the bot_name and token as command line arguments.
Syntax:

[PYTHON] [ENTRY_POINT] [bot_name] [token]

Example:

python main.py mysamplebot "173453434:42jhs894_13234jsjgasjs"

Now the multi_bot.py script runs multiple instances of the bot code in seperate screen sessions/sockets.
(each socket is named after the name of the bot running inside it)
The bots.yml file supplies the list of bot accounts with their tokens to multi_bot.py
Syntax of bots.yml
botusername: "bottoken"
anotherbotname: "anothertoken"
Example:
mysamplehorriblebot: "173453434:42jhs894_13234jsjgasjs"
anotherSamplebot: "556453434:42jhs894_13234yuweeerasjs"
