     Nextsearch («nextsearch»)
          Advances to the next match in the Search Results window.
 
     Arg <number> Nextsearch («arg» <number> «nextsearch»)
          Moves to the nth match in the current set of matches, where n
          is specified by <number>.
 
          To move relative to the current match, use a signed number.
          For example, when <number> is +1, PWB moves to the next
          match, and when it is -1, PWB moves to the previous match.
 
     Arg Nextsearch («arg» «nextsearch»)
          Moves to the next match in the current set of matches that
          does not refer to the current file.
 
     Meta Nextsearch («meta» «nextsearch»)
          Advances to the next set of matches.
 
     Arg Arg Nextsearch («arg» «arg» «nextsearch»)
          Sets the match at the cursor as the current match. This works
          only when the cursor is on a match in the Search Results
          window.
 
     Update
 
     In PWB.1.x, the results of searches are browsed using the Nextmsg
     function.
