Paragraphs port
Paragraphs lets players type section signs and other characters that vanilla text fields reject, including when pasting item NBT.
What it does
Most text inputs in Minecraft, such as chat and anvil renaming, reject the section sign and some other illegal characters. Paragraphs removes that restriction, so those characters can be typed into the same fields, and a command block item editor can paste NBT that contains them. Either side can run it, and neither needs it, so a server can run without the mod while players who want the extra characters install it on their client.
Paragraphs is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with files for 26.1 – 26.3. The latest build is 1.0.1+26.1 for 26.3, released on 2026-09-27. Snapshot builds are published. The mod is licensed under All rights reserved and is not open source. Its optional dependencies are MixinTrace and MixinTrace Unofficial-TT-Port.
Key features
Section sign input
Text fields accept the section sign, which the vanilla game blocks, so formatting codes can be typed directly.
Other blocked characters
Characters that vanilla rejects can be entered in chat, anvils and similar text inputs.
NBT paste support
Item NBT containing section signs can be pasted into the command block item editor and other NBT fields.
