00:32 <banna> to the surprise of absolutely no one, it was my login manager causing my env var woes...

06:03 <dnkl> WhyNotHugo: it's one emoji here. Assuming you haven't disabled grapheme shaping, it could also be caused by a too old libutf8proc (which foot uses to do grapheme cluster segmentation)

06:04 <dnkl> the pirate flag was added in Unicode 11 I believe, which is _fairly_ old...

06:05 <dnkl> but it could also be the shell that splits it up, if you're pasting it in the prompt

06:05 <dnkl> try "cat -" and then paste it

06:05 <dnkl> or 'printf "\U1f3f4\u200d\u2620\n"'

09:27 <WhyNotHugo> Yeah, that printf works.

09:27 <WhyNotHugo> The shell splitting it up is a zsh bug?

09:37 <dnkl> bug or feature... it may be intentional

12:18 <WhyNotHugo> If I use the `cat -` trick, it does paste properly

12:18 <WhyNotHugo> that confirms that it's a zsh issue,right?

12:36 <dnkl> zsh is likely omitting the ZWJ. intentional or, I don't know

13:37 <rockorager> They aren't clustering so they are drawing the ZWJ and variation selector as <%U>

13:37 <rockorager> foot has no chance at turning that into an emoji 😂

13:38 <rockorager> AFAIK there aren't any shells that do clustering + measurement correctly

18:07 <WhyNotHugo> On zsh, setting `setopt COMBINING_CHARS` clusters the combining character

18:07 <WhyNotHugo> It's disabled by default due to terminal compat issues
