DESCRIPTION
Select, insert, or copy Unicode characters like emoji using rofi.

OPTIONS

-h, --help
    Prints brief usage information.

--version
    show program’s version number and exit

--action, -a
    Possible values: type, copy, clipboard, type-numerical, unicode, copy-unicode, print, menu

            Choose what to do with the selected characters: Directly type them with the "Typer", copy them to the clipboard using the "Clipboarder", or insert them indirectly using the clipboard. To use the compose key functionality, choose "type-numerical:. "unicode" will type the unicode codepoints of the chosen characters, "copy-unicode" will copy it. "print" just outputs them on stdout.
            If you want to decide spontanously, use "menu".

--files FILE [FILE ...], -f FILE [FILE ...]
    Read characters from this file (or these files), one entry per line. Absolute and relative paths are supported, as is globbing (--files /home/you/characters.csv ../other*.csv).
    A filename without extension is enough (--files musical_symbols supplemental_arrows) for included character files and all in ${XDG_DATA_HOME}/rofimoji/data. Here, too, globbing is supported and done by default.

    In the config file, several files need to be listed as files=[_FILE_, _FILE_].

--skin-tone=skin-tone, -s skin-tone
    Possible values: neutral, light, medium-light, moderate, dark brown, black, ask

            Decide on a skin-tone for all supported emojis. If not
            set (or set to "ask"), you will be asked for each one

--max-recent MAX-RECENT
    Show at most this number of recently used characters (cannot be larger than 10)

--no-frecency
    Don’t show frequently used characters at the start.

--hidden-descriptions
    Only list the characters, but not their description. Note that you can still search through the descriptions. Only used for rofi.

--use-icons
    Show characters as icons on rofi. Not used with other selectors.

--prompt PROMPT, -r PROMPT
    Set rofimoji’s prompt

--selector-args SELECTOR-ARGS
    A string of arguments to give to the selector.

--selector SELECTOR
    Possible values: rofi, wofi, fuzzel, bemenu, tofi, dmenu, wmenu, choose, hyprlauncher

            Choose the selector application manually. Usually `rofi`, but you may want something else.

--clipboarder CLIPBOARDER
    Possible values: xsel, xclip, wl-copy, pbcopy

            Choose the application to access the clipboard with manually.

--typer TYPER
    Possible values: xdotool, wtype, ydotool, cliclick, wl-ime-type

            Choose the application to type with manually.

--keybinding-copy, --keybinding-type, --keybinding-clipboard, --keybinding-unicode, --keybinding-copy-unicode
    Define different keybindings for these actions.

FILES

~/.config/rofimoji.rc
    Per-user configuration file.

/etc/xdg/xdg-i3/rofimoji.rc
    Global configuration file.

~/.local/share/rofimoji/recent

CONFIGURATION
Args that start with “--” (eg. --version) can also be set in a config file.

Config file syntax allows: key=value, flag=true, stuff=[a,b,c] (for details, see syntax at https://github.com/fdw/rofimoji#example-config-file). If an arg is specified in more than one place, then commandline values override values from the config file.
