Hey there;

I love ripcord, it really makes my life hugely better. One feature request though.

I wind up typing colons (:) a lot for various reasons, and ripcord pops open a little dialog box of ... stuff? I don't know if they are emojis or what, but I have never once wanted anything from that dialog box. What often happens, is I will accidentally select something from that box and instead of what I want to show up in chat, it'll turn into some :random-word thing ... it's really annoying and it comes up for me a lot.

I'd like to simply turn that popup box off and just have :'s treated the same as any other character. As far as I can tell, there is no setting to do this, so asking as a feature request. Hopefully this one is relatively easy!

This is honestly the only trouble I've ever had with ripcord so kudos on a truly excellent product and I recommend it all the time.
