The negative index thing for "nth" sounds like a bad idea, out of keeping with Pd's more usual style of limiting out-of-range values to the end of the range in question.
Ok, so you want people to do it like this instead?
| [t l l] | | | [list length] | | | [- ] <--- feed me | | [list nth] |
You can do negative indicies of a list with a single modulus operator tuned to the length of the list:
list index to look up
|
| [r mylist]
| |
| [list length]
| |
[r mylist] [mod] | | [list split] |
