Version 0.6.2 (pre-release)

• Upgrade to gemoji 4.0.0.rc2 with Unicode 13.0 support

Version 0.6.2 (from the gemoji-4.0-native-emojis-no-images branch) uses the gemoji ruby gem and displays emojis as native Unicode emojis. Due to the nature of Unicode symbols and system fonts, this will show emojis on different operating systems differently.

If you want a consistent display, use the old stable version 0.5.0 from the master branch instead which displays emojis as images. The downside, however, is that there is no support for latest Unicode emojis – and will never be!
