Chasm

A library for calculating the width of and spacing text/components in Minecraft: Java Edition.

Chasm provides the ability to calculate the display width of any text using any font. By default, it provides a simplified version of Minecraft's default font but provided with a resource pack it can load the fonts within and provide width calculations for them. For loading of all of Minecraft's default fonts the chasm-plugin is available.
