BAH! nevermind. I went into the code to look at the mappings for smilies/emoticons and they were not using unicode there. Which is odd, because they were using it almost everywhere else. So now, you CAN use (well in my latest build) the number keys to show smilies. I recommend using L_Shift to activate smilies however as you have to press that key, the Fn key and the number key all at the same time to make it work, and well, thats almost impossible unless you use L_Shift because you can hold both L_Shift and Fn down with one thumb and then press the number you want...

I need to check and see if shortcuts work or not, may be the same problem and I can fix that up as well...
