apg: Create a password with 16 characters.
$ apg -m ${16}
try on your machine
The command "apg -m ${16}" appears to be using the "apg" command with a flag "-m" and an argument "${16}".
-
"apg" is a password generator tool developed for generating secure random passwords. It stands for "Automated Password Generator".
-
The "-m" flag is used to set the minimum password length. In this case, it seems that the minimum length is being set to a variable or parameter called "${16}". The value of this variable is not specified in the command itself.
It is important to note that without knowing the value of "${16}" or the context in which this command is being used, it is difficult to provide a more detailed explanation.
This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and
never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
