1.) So I have patched this quote skin together for my secondary screen and the quotes are displayed randomly from a textfile. But instead of displaying them randomly, I want to modify the script so it displays one line after line with each update. I know its simple with a lua script but I cant figure it out. Thank you for your help!

Bonus questions if someone wants to bother:
2.) How can I make one version of the script that displays quotes in random order but without repetition? So all seen quotes or the indexes of seen lines are saved in an array for example.
3.) I'd like to increase/decrease textsize with mousewheel with a set width. But I can manage this part myself, just need to find some time.
