"I absolutely love beats... From a healthy distance 😁."
(What Deb said, with a little minor tweaking, plus enhancing the emoji character with bold and double size formatting tags.)
1. Take the "😁" (containing the ASCII code for the emoji character)
2. Replace the leading "&#" with the formatting tag: "\char{"
and replace the trailing ";" with proper formatting tag closure: "}"
3. Add preceding (click →) formatting tags for boldface: "\b"
and double size: "\2{"
4. Append the corresponding closure for each: "}", yielding:
\b{\2{\char{128513}}} (as written)
… which the forum's formatting engine will turn into this:
😁
(Other sneaky tricks have been used herein to prevent the formatting engine from converting the "as written" formatting tag(s) into the corresponding emoji.)
Arcane enuff fer ya? 😉
