Description

## Show what you press

Recording a parkour tutorial, streaming PvP, or just curious how fast you click? **Clean Keystrokes** shows a small panel with your movement keys, mouse buttons, clicks per second (CPS) and the space bar - lighting up as you press them.

## Features

- **W A S D** keys that light up when pressed, with a short fade when you let go.
- **LMB / RMB** with live **CPS** (clicks per second) for both mouse buttons.
- **Space bar** for jumps.
- **Your own key bindings** - if you play with Z Q S D (AZERTY) or custom keys, the panel shows those letters.
- **Any corner, any size** - top-left by default (just under Clean Info HUD if you use both), scale 0.5x to 3x.
- **Custom colors** - background, pressed color and text colors, with transparency.
- **Hides with F1 and F3** like the rest of the HUD.

No key bindings of its own - nothing to set up and no conflicts with other mods.

## Settings

The file `config/cleankeystrokes.properties` is created on first launch. Colors are `#AARRGGBB` or `#RRGGBB`:

- `enabled` (true), `corner` (top_left / top_right / bottom_left / bottom_right), `offsetX` (4), `offsetY` (60), `scale` (1.0)
- `showMouse` (true), `showCps` (true), `showSpace` (true)
- `keyColor` (#80000000), `pressedColor` (#DDFFFFFF), `textColor` (#FFFFFFFF), `pressedTextColor` (#FF000000)

## Works on servers

This is a **client-side only** mod. It only **shows** the keys and clicks you make - it never presses, holds or repeats anything, and gives no gameplay advantage. Allowed on PvP servers that allow keystroke displays (most do); check the rules of competitive servers.

## Honest limitations

- CPS only counts clicks while no menu is open.
- Very long key names (like "Left Shift") are shrunk to fit their box.
- The settings are in a config file; there is no in-game settings screen yet.

## Requirements

- Minecraft 1.21 / 1.21.1
- Fabric Loader 0.16 or newer
- Fabric API
- Java 21

## Installation

1. Install Fabric Loader for Minecraft 1.21.1.
2. Put **Fabric API** and **Clean Keystrokes** in your `mods` folder.
3. Start the game.
