First, remove the -e.  That'll address the error you reported.

Second, _next_tags is not a tag; it's a widget (= a shell function that
can be bound to a keystroke).  It doesn't belong in the value of the tag-
order style.

When you set «tag-order foo bar baz», you'll find that only completions
under the tag foo are displayed at first.  To display completions of the
tag bar, you'll have to invoke _next_tags.  However, as a widget, it's
not invoked by typing out its name; rather, it's invoked by pressing
whichever key combination or chord is bound to it.  That's explained in
the manual, under tag-order and _next_tags (they both have entries).

Cheers,

Daniel
