PBEmojiLabel

This is a UILabel category which allows you to insert Emojis you use in Campfire, GitHub, Basecamp, Turntable.fm, Teambox, Trac and Flowdock without the need to calculate where to insert some UIImages representing the Emojis.

How does it work?

It's as simple as A-B-C, all the supported Emojis are in the EmojiList.plist. Each key (the emoji code) contains a value with the represented iOS unicode character. When you call setEmojiText: the label iterates through the keys and searches in your text for a result.

But, is it slow?

As far as I know, not at all.

Please be sure to NOT edit the plist using Xcode because it makes some weird XML-Encoding which the label fails to interpret as an Emoji.
