tuimoji is a terminal based emoji chooser.
With tuimoji you can search and browse emojis and copy them to your clipboard without ever leaving the comfort of your terminal.
By default tuimoji copies characters to the clipboard, which is the usual selection when using copy and paste operations (ctrl+c/ctrl+v). You can also instruct tuimoji to place the character on the primary (middle click paste) or secondary (unused) selections.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Browse emojis by category: choose from activity, flags, food, nature, objects, people, symbols, and travel.
- Search emojis by name.
- Supports skin tone modifiers. By default the program defaults to 0, which is the original Simpsons skin tone (i.e. no modifier). The skin tones are none, light tone, medium light, medium, medium dark, and dark.
