Computer Terminal
by dariusxx5555
Computer Terminal adds an in-game text editor with rich formatting and a print button, so players can write documents inside Minecraft and print them as uneditable paper.
What it does
The Computer Terminal editor supports bold, italic, underline and text color, in a layout that resembles a word processor. The editor offers 50 lines of writing space, and a print button turns the finished text into a paper item that cannot be edited afterward. Both the server and every player need the mod, since the editor and printing run through the same installation on each side.
Players who use the mod for notes, signs or in-world records will find the printed paper useful as a fixed document. The mod is published for Forge only, and its single file targets 1.20.1. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source.
Key features
Rich text formatting
Bold, italic, underline and text color can be applied to any part of the text while writing.
Print button
The print button converts the document into a paper item that players can hold or place.
Uneditable printed paper
Once printed, the paper keeps its text and cannot be changed, so the record stays as it was written.
Editor space
The editor provides 50 lines of writing space in one document before printing.

What the author says
Computer Terminal is a simple and lightweight (hopefully) mod that allows you to type text into a computer that automatically saves. It also allows you to print the text on a document/paper which cannot be edited, good for documentation or roleplay!
