🚦🚥 ... ok it works 🌋

A super-simple #emoji keyboard for #x11.

Well, I did have to fiddle with the keymap.

And I had to add delays 🤯👹 (otherwise there are races between keymap changes and keyboard events).

And I had to misuse the #Xtest extension, cause applications ignore "synthetic" events. 🫥😣

But hey, it works 🕺

Now needs some basic, uhm, "features" (like recently used, like search by name).

#Unicode #CLDR (almost) fixed a bug I filed (almost) 10 years ago. I'm touched.

Formatting people’s names correctly in a given context, for a given purpose, is hard. International linguists recently helped update the #Unicode Common Locale Data Repository (#CLDR). It will help programmers display person names correctly in many settings.
Mike McKenna wrote about it in “A Story Teller’s Case Study: Unlocking the Power of CLDR Person Name Formatting – A Solution for Formatting Names in a Globalized World” https://www.unicode.org/media/CLDR_Person_Name_White_Paper_June%202023.pdf
