+#X text 18 51 The qlist object reads text files containing time-tagged
+Pd messages. You can have them sequenced automatically (by sending
+a "bang" message \, possibly changing speed via "tempo" messages) or
+manually via the "rewind" and "next" messages.;
+#X text 15 136 To run the qlist automatically \, send it a "read" message
+(the filename is relative to the directory the patch is in) and later
+a "bang." Messages in the file are separated by semicolons. Optional
+leading numbers are delay times in milliseconds. If the tempo is diffrerent
+from 1 the messages are sent faster or slower accordingly. Messages
+should start with a symbol giving the destination object. In the file
+"qlist.q" used here \, the messages go to objects "this" and "that"
+which are receives below.;
+#X text 17 281 To run it manually \, send "rewind" followed by "next".
+All messages not preceeded by numbers are sent. As soon as a message
+starting with one or more numbers is encountered \, the numbers are
+output as a list. There are many ways you could design a sequencer
+around this.;

+finishing with a semicolon in case you want to make variable-length
+messages.;
