Seems to me that my notion of scanning attachments is getting the most
attention here, even though it's not the most important part to me.  My
main interest is in being able to read attachments in a more consistent
way.  Maybe an example would help...

Right now, a session looks like this:

      % inc
       <scan output>
      
      % show
       (oh, this looks like a multipart message)
      
      % mhlist
      % mhshow -part 1
      % mhshow -part 1.1
      % mhshow -part 2
       (...)
      % next
      ...

What I'd like to be able to do is:

      % inc
       <scan output>
      % show
      % next
       (show first part of current message)
      % next
       (show next part of current message)
      % next
       (...)
      % next
       (show first part of next message)

Hmm. I'm afraid I disagree about this redefinition of "next".  Currently, I 
don't need to do individual mhshows if I just want to sequence through all 
the parts:  just show, and keep hitting Return, or Ctrl-C to skip a part.

Cheers,
Dave
