 either classic smileys (`:-)`) or textual variants (`:joy:`) on standard

+Alternatively, `import` it in your script and call `replace_emoji(<string>)`.
+
+For example, start by adding this repo to your project (you're using git, I
+presume):
+```sh
+git submodule add https://git.anduin.net/ltning/emoji_to_smiley.git smiley
+```
+then, in your code
