 This should work quite well.

 For example, I use

 macro generic <f1> "!less /usr/doc/mutt/manual.txt\n" "Show Mutt documentation"
 macro index   <f1> "!less /usr/doc/mutt/manual.txt\n" "Show Mutt documentation"
 macro pager   <f1> "!less /usr/doc/mutt/manual.txt\n" "Show Mutt documentation"

        -s
