and quit "prematurely" cur is now last, and not the file being displayed when
I quit (or even the cur before I quit). This is probably due to an
optimization
to pass the expanded sequence all to the pager to avoid multiple invocations.
Most pagers are light weight and this is usually not a problem on modern
systems. I, however have no easy solution.
show works as documented:
CONTEXT
If a folder is given, it will become the current folder.
The last message shown will become the current message.
As far as show is concerned, it has shown the last message since it
passed them all to the showproc.
You can achieve the behavior you want by calling show individually on
each message in the sequence with the following script:
msgs=$@
for i in `scan -format '%(msg)' $msgs`; do show $i; done
