alacritty: Run a command in a new Alacritty window.

alacritty

$ alacritty -e ${command}

try on your machine

The command "alacritty -e ${command}" is used to launch the terminal emulator called Alacritty and execute a specific command within it.

Here is a breakdown of the command:

"alacritty": This is the name of the terminal emulator executable or command. Alacritty is a cross-platform, GPU-accelerated terminal emulator known for its speed and minimalism.
"-e": This option tells Alacritty to execute a command within the terminal.
"${command}": This is a placeholder indicating the specific command that you want to execute within Alacritty. The actual command you wish to run is substituted here, enclosed within the "${}" notation.

For example, if you wanted to launch Alacritty and execute the command "ls" (list directory contents) within it, you would replace "${command}" with "ls" resulting in the command "alacritty -e ls".
