Bug in emoji code?

[arohl]

My plugin that alert me to upcoming cricket games yields

:australia: v :england: 3:03 | symbolize=false
---
Australia vs England starts on Sun Oct 09 at 4:10 PM | color = royalblue

The Australian flag renders correctly but the English one renders as the text :england: not the flag. I note that if I unquote the text in for the flag in this report I get the rendered flag - 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 on my Mac and I thought both the GitHub website and SwiftBar use the same rendering engine!

Hey @arohl,

For whatever reason I have implemented it this way:

    ":gb:": "🇬🇧",
    ":uk:": "🇬🇧",

So if you replace :england: to :uk: you'll see the flag.

I've added :england: as an option as well, it will be available in the next release

That's because the flag you are showing is the UK flag i.e. 🇬🇧 whilst the England flag is only the Red Cross of St George 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Scotland and Ireland also have cricket teams who are playing in the World Cup in Australia that started today!

Note to self - don't work on GitHub issues before morning coffee 😅

Got it, I've added a proper :england: 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 flag, will be available with the 1.4.4 release, which I hope to publish soon.
