Mac emoji shortcut remap

14.10.2022

One of my favorite personal touches I've done to my Mac is remap the emoji picker. It's normally ⌃ + ⌘ + space. It's pretty easy combo but I never really liked it for some reason. I remapped it to ⌘ + . (with Hammerspooon) which is the corresponding shortcut on Windows, and I love it!

hs.hotkey.bind({"cmd"}, ".", function()
    hs.eventtap.keyStroke({"ctrl", "cmd"}, "space")
end)

On a side note, for symbols such as ⌃, ⌘, → etc. I use aText. I have more info about this on my GitHub dotfiles/aText
