Strange problem with self-defined emoji returning ?

[owenblacker]

I have lines defined in my local Emoji.txt as

<Multi_key> <Multi_key> <bracketleft> <c> <l> <bracketright>                    : "🆑" U1F191 # squared cl
<Multi_key> <Multi_key> <bracketleft> <c> <o> <o> <l> <bracketright>            : "🆒" U1F192 # squared cool
<Multi_key> <Multi_key> <bracketleft> <f> <r> <e> <e> <bracketright>            : "🆓" U1F193 # squared free
<Multi_key> <Multi_key> <bracketleft> <i> <d> <bracketright>                    : "🆔" U1F194 # squared id
<Multi_key> <Multi_key> <bracketleft> <n> <e> <w> <bracketright>                : "🆕" U1F195 # squared new
<Multi_key> <Multi_key> <bracketleft> <n> <g> <bracketright>                    : "🆖" U1F196 # squared ng
<Multi_key> <Multi_key> <bracketleft> <o> <k> <bracketright>                    : "🆗" U1F197 # squared ok
<Multi_key> <Multi_key> <bracketleft> <s> <o> <s> <bracketright>                : "🆘" U1F198 # squared sos
<Multi_key> <Multi_key> <bracketleft> <u> <p> <!> <bracketright>                : "🆙" U1F199 # squared up with exclamation mark
<Multi_key> <Multi_key> <bracketleft> <v> <s> <bracketright>                    : "🆚" U1F19A # squared vs

but, for reasons I don't understand, all of these output a question mark ? instead of the expected emoji character. The predefined shortcuts (like ◆◆SOS˽button, specified around line 3615) all work correctly.

I see the same thing in the Sequences window:

I can't see anything wrong with the config file, so I can only assume something weird is going on.

It might be a file encoding issue. Can you maybe share the file?
