Thank you! + new integration #38

With MacOS Ventura, the python 2 is gone! And instead of installing the extremely outdated python2, I looked for a replacement for my trusty old utf workflow.

uni (with a bit of jq magic) is exactly what I needed, so thank you 💖

Cheers, I can add a note about it in the README, but I'm not entirely sure what "Alfred" is? Is that a built-in macOS thing or another application?

@arp242 Alfred is a Spotlight alternative/replacement back from the times when Spotlight was a little more than a file search - https://www.alfredapp.com. One of its main features - aside from snippets, clipboard history and more - is a support for custom workflows. One of which is based around dead simple query for a unicode character name with Uni :)

I did a different utf workflow for alfred launcher in the end, so I'm closing this for now, since that's not an integration.

I did use uni to build up my database heavily, though, so thank you again 🙏🏻
