MELPA

Shortcuts to type unicode emoticons in emacs. If you use emacs for chat (jabber, irc etc) and can't remember how to enter:

٩(⁎❛ᴗ❛⁎)۶ ┏(-_-)┓┏(-_-)┛┗(-_- )┓ ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ and (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

This might help. Unicode-emoticons defines a simple minor mode that you can enable for certain major modes to enter these empticons via abbrevs.

Installation

Install unicode-emoticons from MELPA with:

M-x package-install RET unicode-emoticons

If you like to do things the hard way: Put unicode-emoticons.el into a directory specified by the load-path variable. Alternatively, you can add a directory to the variable by (add-to-list 'load-path “ADDITIONAL_DIRECTORY”).

If you put the file in “~/.emacs.d/unicode-emoticons/unicode-emoticons.el” for instance, the following snippet in your .emacs file will load and init the extension.

(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/unicode-emoticons/unicode-emoticons.el")
(require 'unicode-emoticons)

If you want to enable it for jabber for instance you'd add:

(add-hook 'jabber-chat-mode-hook 'unicode-emoticons-mode)
(add-hook 'jabber-chat-mode-hook 'abbrev-mode)

Usage

Next time you open a jabber window (or anytime unicode-emoticons-mode and abbrev-mode are enabled) you can use one of the abbrevs to type emoticons.

For instance. Typing

facepalm0

will yield

Seeing a complete list of abbrevs can be accomplished by

M-x list-abbrevs RET

Enjoy!
