### Installation notes

```bash
paseo plugin add YoseptF/paseo-emoji
```

### Limitations

- **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.

### Source README

#### Emoji

A [Paseo](https://paseo.sh) plugin that adds Slack-style `:emoji:` autocomplete to the composer.

![Emoji autocomplete popup above the Paseo composer](images/screenshot.png)

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](https://github.com/iamcal/emoji-data).
