//  as needed.

//  Assume we've previously obtained an access token and saved it to a JSON file..

//  characters (the "ghost" emoji, and a "face savouring delicious food" emoji).  
//  This text file was saved using the utf-8 encoding.

//  The utf-8 bytes for the ghost emoji are 0x9f 0x91 0xbb.  (Note: This is the utf-8
