I'd want it left as what it was before.
To some extent the nmh basic design requires it; for instance if show didn't change the folder then things like: show +inbox first next wouldn't work. So I think that in general nmh commands that take a single folder should change to that folder -- this is the easiest mental model for the user, and better than remembering "command X changes folder and command Y doesn't". For things that work on multiple folders, the only thing that springs to mind at the moment is 'folders'. So I guess a multiple-folder scan ought to leave the current folder alone, to match that. -- PMM _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list Nmh-workers@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
