Re: Multi-codepoint Unicode characters do not combine correctly in input



I read the thread, but I couldn't find anything helpful. All I saw was recommending `combiningchars`.

By "I type an emoji" I mean I use the emoji input on my Mac

There's a long thread about this (and the associated problems) from 2
months ago on zsh-users:

"ZWJ paste from clipboard problem (unicode)"

Does combiningchars fix it for you if you copy-paste the character?
If so, what does "I type an emoji" mean exactly?
