This is a really newbie question :)
*shy ...

How to go back one step when you walk?
!! does not work when the command is short as "s", "n".

What do you mean? Do you mean, if you type "n" at the command line, you want a quicker way to send "s" to the mud? Or do you mean if you type "n", you want to keep sending "n" to the mud?

I should describe my case:

I use a series of "s" to enter a forest in a trigger, then after I see a killer wolf, I want a trigger to back me to "n". How to do this?

The best way would be to trigger off of the message you receive about NPCs already in the room. Here's how it looks in my MUD:

In the room are a spotted fawn, a white tailed buck, a white tailed doe, and a killer wolf.

The trigger would be like this:

#trigger {In the {room|area} {is|are} (*)~.} {#if ("killer wolf" ~= "%1") {@revDir} {#noop This room is safe, do whatever}}

This trigger would be supported by the following trigger:

#trigger {You go ({north|east|west|south|southwest|southeast|northeast|northwest})} {@revDir = %case(%ismember(%1,"north|east|west|south|southwest|southeast|northeast|northwest"),south,west,east,north,northeast,northwest,southwest,southeast)}
