As per my last email about emojis, I did something very simple that will probably meet my needs, for as rarely as I do such things. ~u....; becomes the utf8 sequence for the hex unicode on input. Semi is optional. So my messsage to my wife is now written concisely as:
Love you ~u1f499 ~u1f49a ~u1f49b ~u1f49c Strings become utf8, which are read by my adapter as love you blue heart green heart yellow heart purple heart so I know all is well. This does not prevent a feature like ~[green heart] in the future, with green heart in the config file, if I want to go to all that bother, but I probably don't cause I just wouldn't be doing this on a regular basis, and for the rare times I do I don't mind looking up the unicodes. I just needed an easy portable way to get them in, and u hex digits is pretty standard, though sometimes written u+hex.
