What I want to achieve is to have a specific emoji appear next to dotfiles inside file manager "LF" (these can be made visible in the file manager with the "zh" shortcut). In my ~/.config/lf/icons these are the first 9 lines in it:
^\..*	👑  
di	📁  
fi	🗞️  
tw	🤝  
ow	❌  
ln	🔗  
or	❔  
ex	🚀  
*.txt	🗞️
These are additional things I've tried:
1. ^\..*	👑
 2. ^\.*	👑
 3. ^.*	👑
 4. .*	👑
 5. ..*	👑
I've also tried reordering this "icons" file, i.e. putting one of these 5 before or after "fi" and similar filetypes. Is this even possible in "LF"? Other emojis seem to work fine. I'm not sure what kind of information I would need to provide for this kind of issue, but here is some(please correct me and/or suggest additional info I should provide) Distro: Manjaro WM: i3 TE: xfce4-terminal Emojis: Noto Color Emoji
