§Support – the formatting symbol is allowed in all text inputs.- All Standard Colors & Styles – 16 colors (
§0–§f), bold (§l), italic (§o), obfuscated (§k), and reset (§r).- Works Everywhere – chat, books (writable and written), signs, anvil‑renamed items, GUI elements, action bar, titles, and even some modded screens that use vanilla rendering.

- Enjoy colorful and stylish text anywhere!
Note: The
§symbol may require a special key combination (e.g., Alt+6 or Ctrl+Shift+6) depending on your keyboard layout. This mod removes the built‑in restriction, so once typed, it will work.
- However, I recommend simply copying this symbol to the clipboard and pinning it there, that way, it will be easier to use. To open the clipboard in Windows, press [WIN+V].
