All of those characters (except GINGER ROOT, as described above) are rendered for me by Firefox. The characters GINGER ROOT and LUNGS are not rendered in my Cygwin CLI; they appear as a question mark inside a square.

Thanks kcott for motivating me to learn a bit more about this topic.

To take Perl and the Web Browser out of the equation, and just test basic platform support, I ran the following simple test on both my Windows 11 laptop and its embedded WSL Ubuntu Linux 22.04.

On Ubuntu, running the following t1.bash script at the shell command prompt:

#!/usr/bin/bash echo -e '\U1F5A7' # THREE NETWORKED COMPUTERS echo -e '\U274E' # NEGATIVE SQUARED CROSS MARK echo -e '\U1FADA' # GINGER ROOT echo -e '\U1F330' # CHESTNUT echo -e '\U1F34E' # RED APPLE echo -e '\U1F60B' # FACE SAVOURING DELICIOUS FOOD echo -e '\U1F384' # CHRISTMAS TREE echo -e '\U1F6F9' # SKATEBOARD echo -e '\U1F3D8' # HOUSE BUILDINGS echo -e '\U1FAC1' # LUNGS
resulted in every one of the gang of ten symbols displayed correctly in the shell window.

On Windows 11, running the following PowerShell commands:

[char]::ConvertFromUtf32(0x1F5A7) # THREE NETWORKED COMPUTERS [char]::ConvertFromUtf32(0x274E) # NEGATIVE SQUARED CROSS MARK [char]::ConvertFromUtf32(0x1FADA) # GINGER ROOT [char]::ConvertFromUtf32(0x1F330) # CHESTNUT [char]::ConvertFromUtf32(0x1F34E) # RED APPLE [char]::ConvertFromUtf32(0x1F60B) # FACE SAVOURING DELICIOUS FOOD [char]::ConvertFromUtf32(0x1F384) # CHRISTMAS TREE [char]::ConvertFromUtf32(0x1F6F9) # SKATEBOARD [char]::ConvertFromUtf32(0x1F3D8) # HOUSE BUILDINGS [char]::ConvertFromUtf32(0x1FAC1) # LUNGS
also resulted in every one of the gang of ten symbols displayed correctly in the Powershell window.

The characters GINGER ROOT and LUNGS are not rendered in my Cygwin CLI

I'm not running Cygwin. However, if you open a Powershell window on your Windows 10 box and type these two commands:

[char]::ConvertFromUtf32(0x1FADA) # GINGER ROOT [char]::ConvertFromUtf32(0x1FAC1) # LUNGS
it would be interesting to see if these two emojis are rendered correctly.
