  • How to display 'all' emoji

    From Cecil Westerhof@Cecil@decebal.nl to gnu.emacs.help on Wed Mar 29 17:58:59 2023
    From Newsgroup: gnu.emacs.help

    I am playing a little with emoji. Some are displayed in black and
    white for example:
    ryo Hot Beverage

    But most are not, for example:
    Ef2u Teapot

    This displays a box with 01FAD6 in it.

    Is there a font I could use to display 'all' emoji correctly? And if
    it could be done in colour rCa

    As much as I don't like emojis, they do both display as color emojis in
    my
    Gnus/5.13 (Gnus v5.13) Emacs/28.2 (gnu/linux)
    maybe it is your older emacs
    Gnus/5.13 (Gnus v5.13) Emacs/27.1 (gnu/linux)
    that doesn't display them properly.

    This is the only font I set for emacs in my init files:
    -adobe-courier-medium-r-normal--20-140-100-100-m-110-iso8859-15

    found it:
    (set-fontset-font t '(#x1f000 . #x1faff)
    (font-spec :family "Noto Color Emoji"))

    Works for most and in colour. One that does not work:
    Ef2| Heart Hands

    It is mostly solved. See my own reply.

    This is the only font I set for emacs in my init files:
    -adobe-courier-medium-r-normal--20-140-100-100-m-110-iso8859-15

    How do I set this font? When I use:
    (set-frame-font "-adobe-courier-medium-r-normal--20-140-100-100-m-110-iso8859-15" nil t)

    I get:
    (error "Font not available" rCa
