\n# \ud83d\udccb Overview
\nChat Tools is a highly customizable Minecraft client mod that supports various features, allowing them to interoperate through commands and more.<\/p>\n
# \ud83d\udcd6 Glossary and Technical Details
\n– **Session Identifier** _(Chat Tools-specific term)_ is a string that, in single-player mode, corresponds to the current save name, and in multiplayer mode, corresponds to the server address. Related Regular Expressions use the `matches()` method for matching.
\n– **Pattern** _(General term)_ refers to the Regular Expression pattern. Chat Tools uses the MULTILINE mode for Regular Expressions and matches them using the `find()` method.
\n– Chat Tools maintains multi versions by using macro replacement. The same version of Chat Tools may exhibit slight differences between Minecraft versions.
\n– When processing player messages, Chat Tools removes color codes (\u00a7.).
\n– By enabling Advanced Tooltips (F3+H), you can hover over configuration items on the configuration page to view their keys, default values, and other details.<\/p>\n

\nFor elaborate descriptions and examples, please see **>>FAQ<<**.\n\n## General Settings\nThese are the core settings for Chat Tools:\n- Show Timestamp \nAdds a timestamp to each message.\n\n- Restore Messages \nRecovers messages from previous sessions.\n- Nickname Hider \nConceals your real nickname from your view.\n\n- Translator \nPress Shift + Tab in the chat bar to start translating.\n- Enable Chat History Navigator \nUse Ctrl + F to start navigating in chat! \n\n- Max History Length\nSets the maximum number of chat messages stored.\n\n\n## Notifier Settings\nVarious chat alert features:\n- Toast Notification\n\n- Sound\nSupports custom sound effects.\n- Actionbar\nDisplays alerts in the action bar.\n- Highlight\nSupports custom highlighting prefixes.\n\n- Allow List\nMessages matching this list are allowed.\n- Ban List\nMessages matching this list are blocked (higher priority than Allow List).\n\n## Formatter Settings\nCustomize your messages using specified patterns. Apply different rules for different servers. [See Bubble Rules](#bubble-settings).\n- Pattern\nAutomatically formats messages based on the specified style.\nFor example: \n`&e{text}` makes your message gold on servers supporting the color prefix '&'.\n`&e{text} ~(ovo)~` adds a personalized suffix.\n`My coordinates are: {pos}` replaces `{pos}` with your current coordinates.\n- Auto-Disable for Matching...\nIn some cases, you **don't want** your text to be formatted. \nThis includes (but isn't limited to):\nItem counts or `all` when selling items to the Chest Shop; \nCommands starting with special characters. \nThe default RegEx pattern `^d+$|^[.#%$\/].*|ballb` covers most cases.\nYou can modify or add more as needed.\n\n## Chat Keybindings\nUse hotkeys for frequently used commands:\n- Trigger Last Command Hotkey\nPress a set hotkey to repeat the previous command.\nFor example: \nWhile playing a Parkour map, do F3+C and activate it for a time, then you can quickly go back to the recorded point location every time you press the hotkey.\n- Command Keybindings\nAssign hotkeys to frequently used commands.\n\n\n## Bubble Settings\n- Enable Chat Bubbles\nDisplays a chat bubble over your head.\n\n- Bubble Rules\nApply different bubble rules on different servers.\n\n\n## Responder Settings\n> **Warning: Before using this feature on a server, please check with other players and admins first!**
