AkelPad

In Win11 23H2 AkelPad show black and white unicode emoji instead of colored.
Also nation flag show only acronym.
Do it is possible to fix it?

Yes please this would be so delightful to have. Full color emoji in AkelPad with Segoe UI Emoji font or with Twitter Color emoji font

I heard on Windows, only DirectWrite has this otherwise for GDI apps using Uniscribe etc, it must be implemented by the dev. I know one app called BabelPad that has it despite not using DirectWrite

Apparently Notepad++ supports color fonts, Unicode 16 and DirectWrite via the powerful Scintilla editing component. AkelPad of course uses AkelEdit whose performance is considerably superior to Scintilla, hence AkelPad performing way better than Notepad++
