Anvil Formatting Codes

a Minecraft Datapack for versions 1.19 and higher

Description:

Allows formatting of item names in anvils using formatting codes! This provides a survival-friendly method for all players to get customized item names.

Usage:

Custom text can be used when renaming items in anvils using the Ampersand sign (&) followed by a valid formatting code:

Code	Name
&0	Black
&1	Dark Blue
&2	Dark Green
&3	Dark Aqua
&4	Dark Red
&5	Dark Purple
&6	Gold
&7	Gray
&8	Dark Gray
&9	Blue
&a	Green
&b	Aqua
&c	Red
&d	Light Purple
&e	Yellow
&f	White
&k	Obfuscated
&l	Bold
&m	Strikethrough
&n	Underline
&o	Italic
&r	Reset

Multiple formatting codes can be specified consecutively to customize text color and type (see Example 1). Unlike default Minecraft, all previous formatting types are retained throughout text (see Example 2). Consequently, formatting can be reset to default parameters using the &r code (see Example 3).

Text Entered in Anvil	Text Produced
&d&lHello World	Hello World
&nHello &dWorld	Hello World
&d&l&nHello &r&dWorld	Hello World

NOTES:

Text interpretation occurs when the item is moved into the player's inventory. Interpretation can take multiple ticks to multiple seconds depending on server backup!
Italic formatting on renamed items is removed by default! This replicates the functionality of Unitalicize, however, both datapacks should NOT be running in the same world

The datapack can be fully disabled by using the command /function afc:uninstall

Credits:
This datapack utilizes 5uso's General String Parser for converting raw strings to character arrays. String parsing, interpreting, and data handling written by Oligo.

Any plans to update this to 1.20? Datapack doesn't work as-is.

it seems it doesn't work for me in 1.19.3. it's in the enabled datapacks list but when I take a named item out of an anvil not only is it not formatted but it's still italicized.

1.19.4 will make your work so much simpler !

You are correct! Once 1.19.4 officially releases, I will remove the dependancy on 5uso's string parser. Should run much faster afterwards too!

Does this datapack also have the functions of the remove italics datapack of yours? Or would I need both?

Yes, this datapack incorporates unitalicizing names by default without the "Unitalicize" datapack! I would NOT recommend having both datapacks running in the same world.
