NAME
  mhpath - print full pathnames of MH messages and folders (only available
  within the message handling system, mh)

SYNOPSIS
  mhpath [ +foldername ] [ msgs ] [ -help ]

DESCRIPTION
  Use the mhpath command to display the full pathname of the specified
  folder.  If you do not specify a folder, mhpath displays the pathname of
  the current folder.

  If you specify a message with its message number, mhpath displays the
  pathname of the specified message.  You can also specify a number of
  messages, or a range of messages.  If the top of the range that you specify
  is greater than the last message in the folder, mhpath displays as much of
  the specified range as possible.

  Additionally mhpath can take a keyword or a sequence name.  The following
  keywords are acceptable:

  first	    The first message in the folder.

  last	    The last message in the folder.

  new	    The message after the last message in the folder.  You cannot use
	    new as part of a message range.

  cur	    The current message in the folder.

  prev	    The message before the current message.

  next	    The message after the current message.

  all	    All of the messages in the folder.

FLAGS
