HexParse
by YukkuriC
HexParse, a YukkuriC mod for Hex Casting, converts a custom code pattern literal list into an iota command when the player holds a focus item.
What it does
The mod adds a set of patterns and commands for reading and writing Hex Casting code as text. A pair of patterns converts a custom code pattern literal list into an iota, so spell code can be written compactly rather than built one pattern at a time. A comment iota shows a string inside a parsed iota with its id, and the hexparse:comment pattern runs without doing anything. Comment iotas can carry text, line breaks, indents, unknown great spell placeholders, and the player can hide them by holding Shift.
HexParse requires Hex Casting and runs on the client and server, so the server and every player need it. Optional support is available for Hexal and MoreIotas. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, with builds for 1.19.2, 1.20.1 and 1.21.1 and the MIT License applied to the open source code. The source, issue tracker and wiki are public, and a highlight extension for VSCode is available on the marketplace.
