Hello.

When will SeaMonkey support emojicons like in e-mails since I am
getting more of them not showing up correctly.

Thank you in advance. :)

Found an extension for Thunderbird, that when run through the
Converter <http://addonconverter.fotokraina.com/> provides an Emoji
Menu for adding them to your emails, or newsgroup posts composed in
HTML. 😂

The extension can be found at Emoji Menu
<https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/emoji-menu/>.

You do need the proper fonts installed on your machine to view them
all. In my case I had to install ttf-ancient-fonts in my Linux OS.

Just read an article today that 😂 is one of the most popular
emotes.| |

I see a smiley-face emoticon in your reply.  Emoticons have been
supported in mail-news -- Thunderbird and SeaMonkey -- for quite some
time.  However, emoticons are NOT emojis.

You should be seeing an emoji, the Unicode character U+1F602, as long
as you have a font with a glyph for that character installed.

Emoticons are a different thing, just strings of ASCII characters such
as (c:   -- I think the emoticon support you're talking about involves
displaying some kind of graphic instead of the ASCII string.


My observation is that emoji are fancy pants emoticons - what am I missing?
