prev - show the previous message
SYNOPSIS
prev [+folder] [-showproc program] [-showmimeproc program]
[-header] [-noheader] [-checkmime] [-nocheckmime]
[-switches for showproc or showmimeproc]
[-version] [-help]
DESCRIPTION
Prev performs a show on the previous message in the speci
fied (or current) folder. Like show, it passes any
switches on to the program named by showproc or showmime
proc, which is called to list the message. This command
is almost exactly equivalent to "show prev". 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), next(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 previous
message in sequence) will become the current message.
BUGS
prev is really a link to the show program. As a result,
if you make a link to prev and that link is not called
prev, 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 prev to the entry.
