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  showproc
       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.
