Emoji command line helper 👾

import argparse

parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description="Emoji helper")
parser.add_argument("search", type=str, nargs="*")
parser.add_argument("--emojify", "-e", type=str)

parser.add_argument("--find", "-f", type=str)

args = parser.parse_args()

if args.search:
    for key, value in emoji.unicode_codes.EMOJI_DATA.items():
        if any(word in key for word in args.search):
