## suckless program crashes or struggles with colored emojis
Suckless programs especially `st` and `dmenu` can not display colored
emojis.
This is because of problems with libxft.
libxft is the client side font rendering library to display anti-aliased text.
To change this [libxft-bgra](https://github.com/uditkarode/libxft-bgra) needs
to be installed.
This is a patched version especially for running with the suckless programs.
