Configuration: iTerm2
+ +Many terminal apps don’t properly display multibyte emoji characters +properly. This may fix the issue for you in iTerm2, it also may not.
+ +By default iTerm2 uses a unicode rendering format +that is not comletely compatible with some emoji characters. Instead what you’ll +see is the emoji over-lapping normal text characters, or drawing outside +the bounds of where they should be.
+ +In iTerm2 open:
+Preferences -> Profiles -> Text
and check on the “Use Unicode Version 9 Widths” checkbox. Then +restart WTF.
+ +(Note: This issue is not unique to iTerm2. As of this writing it also +affects Terminal, and Hyper.)
