The command "ahost ${example-com}" seems to be a command written in a shell or scripting language, where ${example-com} is a variable representing a hostname or domain name.

In this command, "ahost" is likely a command or function that performs a specific action or task related to host operations. It could be a custom command or a part of a larger script. The purpose of this command depends on its context and its implementation.

The variable ${example-com} is enclosed in curly braces (${...}), which is a common syntax used to access the value of a variable in many shell or scripting languages. In this case, ${example-com} represents the hostname or domain name that the command will operate on.

To fully understand the command, it is necessary to know the context in which it is used and what the "ahost" command or function does. Without this information, it is difficult to provide a more specific explanation.
