At least that I've got from reading ReaderLink.lua source. \r\n\r\nBut that is useful only for links like to short footnotes, where, after reading the footnote, you most likely want to return back to the link origin.\r\n\r\nI think it is useless for links like in the table of contents, because after you jump to a chapter, swipe several pages 'west' as you read the chapter, then want to go back one page in this chapter by swiping 'east', you will be suddenly thrown back to the table of contents because ReaderLink rememberes that you jumped to the capter through the link and interpretes first swipe 'east' as command to go to the link origin (table of contents in our case).\r\n\r\nI personally think that better design choice would be, instead of using first 'east' swipe to go back to the link origin, to have separete command 'Back' in the menu, or something similar, to go back. For example, the CoolReader implements jumping back this way. "}}
