>1) I’m European. We live with accents and other exotic characters. More, being 2020, I use emoticons. Emacs _as is_ doesn’t work with Unicode. Please, don’t tell me how easy it is to fix it. Just fix it for me, thanks. Any other, er, modern editor is Unicode-enabled, period.
What problem do you have with accents in Emacs? I have not had any problems with them in Emacs for a long time. No configuration needed, either.
Emacs also supports emojis, I just tried and got a grinning face *in color* on screen in Emacs. Granted, I had to choose a font that supports emojis, and I had to enter it using "C-x 8 RET grinning face RET". How do you do that in your "modern, Unicode-enabled" editor? Is your keyboard equipped with a key that has a yellow grinning face printed on it?
