Quick response, since it's 5pm and I'm leaving work:
qlist, textfile, pool, array (for numerical data only). And lately the list object has been helpful at this too. In fact, check out the small sequencer applications that Miller has included in the help file for the list object. You may find exactly what you need. It worked for me.

Hello I have two questions: what are some strategies for capturing specific live pd data into pd to reuse it later? I'm sort of visualizing something like a buffer of some arbitrary length of time provided by the user, then perhaps "on the one" you could re-trigger and / or save this loop. also: What are ways to load store and play non-audio loop data? ideally this could work from small one-off files similar to audio loops. Sorry if this is an RTFM question, but the pd universe is vast and maybe someone has done this before.
