Command/option to go back a question

[Eken92]

Hi,

I am wondering if inbuilt support for going back in questions is in scope? For example, always providing an (always) visible option to press "Back"? Or by tapping a keystroke (ctrl+b) or so.

I am aware that this is probably possible to code using nested prompts and so, having really figured out how yet though.

But maybe this isn't something that inquirer would be suitable for, I just got started with this great module and is trying to use it to it fullest.

I don't know how I am supposed to add tags, but it shouldn't be an issue, it should be enhancement/feature.

Thanks!

Hi, this feature is not inline with the direction I want the project to involve in. That is, limiting/removing flow control from the library since it isn't necessary in modern Node. See release notes on #1214

As for a back implementation, we do that with minimal code in our demo package: https://github.com/SBoudrias/Inquirer.js/blob/master/packages/demo/index.mjs
