\bt performs a _

\bw on the next message in the specified
(or current) folder. Like _

to the program _

\bo_
\bc, which is called to list the mes-
sage. This command is almost exactly equivalent to "show

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.
_
\bn_
\be_
\bx_
\bt is really a link to the _
\bs_
\bh_
\bo_
\bw program. As a result,
if you make a link to _
\bn_
\be_
\bx_
\bt and that link is not called
_
\bn_
\be_
\bx_
\bt, your link will act like _
\bs_
\bh_
\bo_
\bw instead. To circumvent
this, add a profile-entry for the link to your _
\bM_
\bH profile
and add the argument _
\bn_
\be_
\bx_
\bt to the entry.
