wCopy
by Alphariont
With wCopy installed, a player can copy any line of Minecraft chat to the clipboard by hovering over it and pressing Alt with the left mouse button.
What it does
wCopy is a lightweight quality-of-life mod for the chat window. Moving the cursor over a message and pressing Alt with a left click places that message on the clipboard at once, ready to paste into another program. Players do not have to select text by hand or open an external tool first. The feedback is immediate, so a player can tell the copy worked without checking the clipboard.
The mod targets the everyday uses of chat: saving coordinates, passing a player message to someone else, or keeping server announcements and game information for later. It works on every type of chat line, including custom text, and it leaves the rest of the vanilla interface unchanged. Only the player's game needs it, and servers run without it. Files are published for Fabric only, for game version 26.2. Fabric API is an optional dependency that the mod can use.
wCopy is not open source. It is released under All rights reserved by the author Alphariont. The first build was published on 2026-07-19, and the latest Fabric file, 1.8.2, dates from 2026-07-25.
