NEXT(1) [nmh-1.5] NEXT(1)
NAME
next - show the next message
SYNOPSIS
next [+folder] [-showproc program] [-showmimeproc program] [-header | -noheader] [-checkmime | -nocheckmime] [switches for showproc or
showmimeproc] [-version] [-help]
DESCRIPTION
Next performs a show on the next message in the specified (or current) folder. Like show, it passes any switches on to the program show-
proc or showmimeproc, which is called to list the message. This command is almost exactly equivalent to "show next". Consult the manual
entry for show(1) for all the details.
FILES
$HOME/.mh_profile The user profile
PROFILE COMPONENTS
Path: To determine the user's nmh directory
Current-Folder: To find the default current folder
showproc: Program to show non-MIME messages
showmimeproc: Program to show MIME messages
SEE ALSO
show(1), prev(1)
DEFAULTS
`+folder' defaults to the current folder
`-checkmime'
`-header'
CONTEXT
If a folder is specified, it will become the current folder. The message that is shown (i.e., the next message in sequence) will become
the current message.
BUGS
next is really a link to the show program. As a result, if you make a link to next and that link is not called next, your link will act
like show instead. To circumvent this, add a profile-entry for the link to your nmh profile and add the argument next to the entry.
