The command "assoc .${txt}=${txtfile}" is used to associate file extensions with a specific file type in a Windows operating system.
In this command, ".${txt}" represents the file extension and "${txtfile}" represents the file type. The purpose is to create an association between the specified file extension and the given file type.
For example, if you have a file extension ".txt" and you want to associate it with a file type "Text Document", you would use the command "assoc .txt=txtfile". This means that when you double-click a file with the ".txt" extension, Windows will open it with the associated program for text documents.
Associating file extensions with file types allows the operating system to know which program to use when opening files with specific extensions, making it easier to manage and open files based on their types.
