This Launchbar action is inspired by the wonderfully-handy emoji.muan.co. 🙌
The emoji keywords are brought to you by the fantastic resource that is muan/emojilib. 📚

What about Launchbar's built-in emoji action?
Launchbar's built-in emoji action is great when you already know the name of the emoji you're looking for. 🎯
Sometimes you don't know the exact name, but you know a keyword or synonym. With this action, whether you know the exact name or you only know a keyword, you can quickly track down the emoji you want. 👌
TODO
- Don't display the keywords in the result list
- The current implementation displays the keywords in the result list so that Launchbar will automatically filter the list by keyword as you type
- In order to remove the keywords from the result list and retain the ability to filter by keyword, the action probably to needs handle the filtering on its own (with a suggestions script?) instead of relying on Launchbar's default filtering
- Add ability to lookup emoji by category
- Add support for the new emojis that Apple launched in 2015 /cc muan/emojilib#24
