Emojis

Overview

RexChat can replace text shortcuts with Unicode emoji characters in chat messages.

Configuration

chat-emoji:
  enabled: true
  emojis:
    - name: "smile"
      aliases: [":)", ":smile:"]
      replacement: "☺"
    - name: "heart"
      aliases: ["<3", ":heart:"]
      replacement: "❤"

Adding Custom Emojis

Add entries to the emojis list:

    - name: "star"
      aliases: [":star:", "*"]
      replacement: "★"
    - name: "check"
      aliases: [":check:", ":yes:"]
      replacement: "✔"

Each emoji needs:

• name — Unique identifier
• aliases — List of text triggers that get replaced
• replacement — The Unicode character or text to replace with

Disabling

Set chat-emoji.enabled: false to disable emoji replacement entirely.
