emojis on raspberry pi

[careyjames]

need a solution for emojiis to display on raspberry pi.

https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/104181/colored-emojis-in-chromium
failed, or I suck.

failed, or I suck again.

There might be a need to add a fallback mechanism for systems that don't support emojis.
but I want to figure this out.

We can use ascii and use the code like the following to set the colo:

return fmt.Sprintf("\033[38;5;2m%s\033[0m", text)
