### Open enchanted books like written books to read their description and lore.
Works client-side, server-side and in single player.
It needn't be installed on both client and server.
[tinytransfem](https://www.curseforge.com/members/tinytransfem) has also created a
[Forge port](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/enchantment-lore-forge).
With this mod you'll be able to open and read enchanted books.
For each enchantment in the book, there will be some lore and a description of how the enchantment works.

Mod integrations
[Enchantments Encore](https://modrinth.com/datapack/enchantments-encore) adds Enchantment Lore descriptions for its
enchantments as of version 2.4.
Enchantment Lore version 1.2.4+ adds descriptions for enchantments from:
- [Mo'Enchantments](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/fabric-more-enchantments)
- [Fabric Enchantments](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/fabric-enchantments)
- [Charm](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/charm)
- [Better End](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/betterend)
- [Monster of the Ocean Depths](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/monster-of-the-ocean-depths-fabric)
These are from
[More Enchantment Descriptions (for Enchantment Lore)](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/texture-packs/more-enchantment-descriptions-for-enchantment-lore)
by [TeaJ4y](https://www.curseforge.com/members/teaj4y).
The resource pack can still add these descriptions to older versions of the mod.
---
Lore and description entries can be added or changed using resource packs, learn how on
[the wiki](https://gitlab.com/supersaiyansubtlety/enchantment_lore/-/wikis/Home).
I've made a few very basic ones that can be found
[here](https://gitlab.com/supersaiyansubtlety/enchantment_lore/-/tree/master/resourcepacks).
If you create and publish a resource pack that adds or modifies enchantment descriptions, feel free to message me and
I'll add a link to it here.

This mod is only for Fabric (works on Quilt, too!) and I won't be porting it to Forge. The license is MIT,
however, ~~so anyone else is free to port it.~~ and [tinytransfem](https://www.curseforge.com/members/tinytransfem) has
[ported it to Forge](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/enchantment-lore-forge)!
I'd appreciate links back to this page if you port or otherwise modify this project, but links aren't required.
