You are explaining how to insert basic pre existing unicode symbols.

I would like to add custom symbols/pictures summoned by custom text code.


It isn't very hard to make some Python code to do the replacement. This can also be solved by a macro in any decent text editor.

However the painful part is to come up with a dictionary mapping names to characters. Unicode characters have standard names but heart is a bit ambiguous so the real names are probably too long for human consumption:
