Grâce à l’aide du CNAP (@cnapfr) et le travail d’Amélie Dumont (@ameliedumont), le dessin de la Full~Times touche à sa fin.

de U+2680 à U+2865 :
⚀ ⚁ ⚂ ⚃ ⚄ ⚅
Ce sera sans aucun doute préférable à l'insertion d'images : plus léger, plus facile à manipuler, c'est du simple texte.

I am once again talking about how in Swedish the emoji 
and
