Hello Chuckk,

i would really like to avoid this(the counter-spigot solution..) but since there's nothing like a <back> message it may be the only way.

As for the double qlist, it brings not much because what i want to achieve is a sort of loop within qlist, which means that it must be able to go one or more steps back continuously. I can do this with <rewind>, but then i should make a different text file for each loop. That is another solution ofcourse, but it would be way more practical to have only one text file and one qlist object.

How about using arrays in data structures to sequence? I seldom use qlist because this is more versatile. If you pack all the important data for each step of a sequence into an element of an array, you can call up any step easily, as many times as you like. I made a quick example patch. It takes a little more patching than a qlist, but, if I understand correctly, it does exactly what you want. Does this help?
