Are there any available fonts which correctly display emojis? I'm playing with sms data...
Cheers,
Sean

Do you want to display them as graphics...
http://unicode.org/emoji/charts/full-emoji-list.html

or cross-platform characters...
https://github.com/Ranks/emojione/tree/master/assets/fonts

Maybe...
*  Helevetica Neue font on iPhone
   https://www.twilio.com/blog/2015/08/common-sms-problems-unicode-twilio.html
* Apple Color Emoji.ttf on OSX...
   https://support.apple.com/en-au/HT201344
* Segoe UI on Windows...
   https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2729094

btw, in Pharo how do you place characters of different fonts on one line?

cheers -ben



P.S. Actually I think I've had enough of Pharo.  I moving the next
best thing... "emojicode" (MIT licensed)...

In this case, yes. I'd like to have them properly display inside Pharo.
