The only thing wrong here is that the client software is trying to interpret the emoticons. Emoticons are for *humans* to interpret, not software. Subtlety and cleverness is part of their charm. If you blatantly replace them with explicit images, you crush that. And don't even get me started on *animated* emoji... -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list Python-ideas@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
