pyemoji's Issues

Error while entitling ❤ emoji

pyemoji.entities('❥')

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "lib\site-packages\pyemoji\main.py", line 32, in repl_func
    decimal_num = int(hex_num, 16)
ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 16: '0xu2765'

---

Probably could be solved by adding lstrip('u') on line 31:
hex_num = '0x{0}'.format(matched.group().encode('unicode_escape').decode('utf8').lstrip('\\').lstrip('U').lstrip('0').lstrip('u'))

Particular Case 🤔

Ubuntu Terminator Errors

the regex of filter emoji may be updated

At first, thank you for opening your code. :)
I review the code to look for the regex of filtering emoji.

try:
    # Wide UCS-4 build
    highpoints = re.compile('[\U00010000-\U0010ffff]')
except re.error:
    # Narrow UCS-2 build
    highpoints = re.compile('[\uD800-\uDBFF][\uDC00-\uDFFF]')

according to the reply of David Mabodo, the regex, which you are using, is not perfect.
