emoji
by YoseptFSlack-style :emoji: autocomplete for the Paseo composer.
Gallery
Supported platforms: Windows, Linux, macOS.
- Desktop and web only; does nothing in the mobile app.
- Reads the composer from the page because the plugin API has no composer-text hook.
- Requires Paseo 0.8 or newer.
From the plugin's README
- Desktop and web only. Paseo's plugin API has no hook into the composer text, so the plugin attaches to the composer's DOM. On iOS and Android it does nothing.
- The popup takes its colors from the composer, so it follows the active theme, but it is drawn outside Paseo's own component tree.

README
Emoji
A Paseo plugin that adds Slack-style :emoji: autocomplete to the composer.
Type : followed by at least three letters and a popup lists the matching emoji, with the
matched letters highlighted. Pick one with Enter or Tab, move with ↑/↓, dismiss
with Esc, or click a row. The shortcode is replaced by the emoji character itself.
Matching covers exact names, prefixes, word prefixes (:dav → star_of_david), substrings,
and letters in order across one gap (:tada → s·ta·r_of_·da·vid). Shortcodes are Slack's,
from emoji-datasource.
