by unidok

CustomChatTextKeybind lets a player bind a key that opens the chat box already filled with a chosen piece of text.

FabricClient-side onlyMIT LicenseOpen source1.14 – 1.21.7

What it does

Pressing the bound key opens chat and types the configured text, so a player can send a fixed phrase in one press. The default key enters a single character. Only the client needs the mod, and it requires Fabric API on Fabric. Builds cover 1.14 – 1.21.7 on the Fabric loader, with 1.0 for 1.21.7 as the latest file, and the code is open source under the MIT License.

Key features

  1. Custom chat keybind

    A key can be assigned to open the chat window with arbitrary text already entered.

  2. Default character key

    The default key enters the same character each time it is pressed.

  3. Tested version focus

    The author recommends 1.21 or later, since testing concentrated on those releases.

What the author says

By default, the \ key is used, which enters the same character. The mod should work on any version, but this is not guaranteed; it is recommended to use 1.21+, because the mod was tested on these versions and was focused on them.
