Did you ever want emojis in your terminal? Do you find yourself constantly writing the same text snippets?

With Tmux-text-macros you can easily save and recall these inside Tmux. Powered by fzf the search allows you to easily search macros by content or description. It comes with all emojis, box-drawing characters and block characters, as well as a few emoticons.

Now I can use all the emojis when writing this blog. 🐦🐻 🕴💀
