### Have you ever wanted *Name Tags* to be just a little more *Convenient*?
Surprise - that's exactly what this mod does! It makes several improvements to the way Name Tags work.
### Main Feature: Rename Name Tag Screen
After right clicking with a Name Tag in your main hand, you will be presented with a screen that allows you to rename
the Name Tag without the use of an Anvil.

### Other Features
- Added a **crafting recipe** for Name Tags
- Made renaming **Villagers** and **Wandering Traders** possible
- Renamed mobs now **drop their Name Tags** when you:
- kill them;
- apply another Name Tag to them;
- shift-right-click them with Shears.

### Configuration
Configuration of Convenient Name Tags is done a `config/convenientnametags.json5` config file.
The following configuration options are available:
| Config Option | Default | Description |
|----------------------------|---------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `renameCost` | 0 | Experience levels required to rename a Name Tag |
| `renameCostPerWholeStack` | true | Should the cost be constant for any stack size (or multiplied by the count) |
