emoji_merger.js (2017B)
- /*
- Emoji merger script, quick hack of a tool to:
- - update some missing emoji from an external source
- - sort the emoji
- - remove all multipart emoji (reactions don't allow them)
- Merges emoji from here: https://gist.github.com/oliveratgithub/0bf11a9aff0d6da7b46f1490f86a71eb
- to the simpler format we're using.
