Minor quibble, but for the life of me, I cannot figure out why I cannot produce a valid em dash ("ā", a.k.a. 0xe28094 or U+2014) on #NetBSD, except with mate-terminal. I've tried (u)xterm, alacritty, and lxterminal, and they all either give me a junk character, or an en-dash followed by a hyphen. When I press the compose key and hit the hyphen three times, it immediately attempts to produce an en-dash after the first two hyphen presses, and then gives me a plain hyphen on top of it.
I've checked the Compose file, and it's set up correctly (as far as I can tell).
I think #OpenBSD has the exact same problem, but I haven't tried installing mate-terminal to find out.

lol you know I actually maintain my own fork of rofi-emoji? ;)
https://codeberg.org/rldane/scripts/src/branch/main/emoji-picker
P.S., sorry, it was forked from fuzzel-emoji. rofi-emoji seems to be significantly different in design. Oh, yeah, it's written in C. Totally different.

Elegant! I'll have to see if you have any emojis I don't have yet. ;)
I've got a lot added to mine, including unicode block characters and box drawing characters, and non-emoji symbols like ā¢ Ā® Ć· Ā±, etc.
