Hi,
I am using the current HEAD of the st repository. My personal
configurations are here:
https://github.com/enanajmain/st/blob/enan/config.h.

I'm trying to display the following icon '\U1F50D', but it doesn't
show in ST terminal. But it appears properly in xfce4-terminal. I have
checked with some other unicode characters and it seems like that ST
can show upto a range of unicode characters. Unicode characters have
two ranges, for the first range you have to use `\u`, a lowercase `u`,
whereas for the second range, you've to use `\U`, an uppercase `u`.

I cannot figure out what is the problem. Maybe I need to use some
specfic fonts. It would be great I could get some help fixing this.

Thanks,
Enan Ajmain
