Links are now clickable in chat. When clicked, a screen appears that warns you not to click on links you do not trust and asks if you want to continue. Below that, three buttons appear, one with “Yes” (opens default web browser and takes you to the link), another with “Copy to Clipboard” (copies the link so that when you paste anywhere the link is pasted), and “No” (closes the message and does not link you to the website).
Mouse wheel can be used to scroll up/down for history. PAGEUP and PAGEDOWN keys can also be used.
Up/down keys for recently sent messages.
If you start typing a player's name, and press Tab ↹, it'll automatically type the rest of the username for you.
Copy & paste in chat.
Just like type §k in chat displays random characters, §l §m §n and §o creates bold, striked, underlined and italic text respectively. Whilst §r resets any set states. These can not be typed using vanilla clients.
Pressing the “/” acts like a command key: it opens the chat with a “/” in it. In other keyboard layouts, it might be another key.
Pressing ← or → will move the insertion point (text pointer) in the respective direction, allowing you to edit text instead of using ← Backspace to go back.
A few new decoration blocks
Wooden planks now have the color of the type of wood they came from instead of the original wooden plank texture.
Slightly changed all colored wools' colors (removing saturation). Comparison
“Back” and “Quit” buttons added to the "Out of memory” screen.
Cats in standing position will now purposely go and sit on nearby chests, active furnaces, and beds, preventing players from using them.

Armor outlines in the armor slots in the inventory have returned.

Notable bugs (Complete bug list):
Attempting to use the § symbol in a multiplayer chat will kick the player out with an "Illegal characters in chat" message, and an disconnect.endOfStream error server-side.
When you type a full bar of chat, then backspace, you crash your client.
Text being typed in SMP will disappear if the Minecraft window is resized. Chat already entered remains visible.
The Ctrl key is used in place of the ? key for chat shortcuts on Macs.
The buttons in the "do you want to click this link" screen are not centered in fullscreen.
When a wolf or cat is in the sitting position, they can stand up and teleport to you without you interacting with them.
"Never open links from people that you don't trust!" has been coded to be red, but it's 1% red and 99% white instead.

The following text [(Otra razon para odiarte...nn) (Translation: Another reason to hate you)] still remains inside [Uruguayo (Uruguay)].
[Uruguayo (Uruguay)] under translations should be correctly labeled as [(Espanol (Uruguay)]

With this, fixed all natural light (not torchlight) being 1 lightlevel darker than it should be, except at world creation.
Corrected birch and spruce saplings not growing at height > 127.
Notable bugs (Complete bug list):
Doors and beds cannot be placed in snow, unlike other blocks which will replace the snow.
Vines turn gray ( like in terrain.png) when pressing f5 outside of the height limit
If a Redstone Lamp is destroyed and picked up while it is ON, it will be considered as a different block type to its OFF counterpart.
Aggressive Mobs will sometimes stop and spin circles, then continue attacking the player.
Cave spiders pushed by water will stop when running into any solid or non-solid block, even when there is an empty space below them.
Wolves can sometimes despawn in SMP.
Light seems to flicker a lot even though it's pitch black(random flickers of light with out any light source), it's noticed the most when the brightness is all the way up.
Sometimes sun's/moon's light shines through blocks lighting up whole caves.[112]
In 1.2.3 SMP after logging in, Minecarts and Mobs that you could interact with on previous login are no longer interactive. Blocks can be destroyed through these objects. Minecarts can be pushed but you can't jump in them or interact with Minecart with Chests. Here is an example video of what is still happening in 1.2.3.[113]
1.2.2
March 1, 2012
1.2.2
Bug fixes:
"Uploaded Minecraft 1.2.2 because birches and pine trees were missing..."
Big trees, swamp trees and giant mushrooms generation fixed too.
In SMP, the cloud shadows aren't sometimes under a cloud, because clouds are different at each client, but the shadow remains same.
Some entities will at times act as if they are not present, even though they are. They cannot be interacted with, and clicking on them will cause things behind them to activate, as if they weren't there. These are not the same as the "ghost entities" bug that existed previously, as the entities in question are actually there and can often be interacted with both before and after this bug is observed.
SMPサーバーに接続しようとするとき、頻繁に"サーバーは無効のサーバーキーで応答した(The server responded with an invalid server key)"というエラーが代わりに表示される。続いて"ストリーム終端(End of Stream)"エラーが現れる。これは最初のサーバーへの接続試行から60秒以内に接続試行がされると表示される。
