If the PAGER variable is set to "less", you can examine the next manual
page with ":n", the previous manual page with ":p" and the first manual
page again with ":x".

Tested with "man -a disklabel":

/usr/share/man/cat8/disklabel.0 (file 1 of 3) (END) - Next: 
/usr/share/man/cat5/disklabel.0
/usr/share/man/cat5/disklabel.0 (file 2 of 3) (END) - Next: 
/usr/share/man/cat9/disklabel.0
/usr/share/man/cat9/disklabel.0 (file 3 of 3) (END)
