assoc: Display the associated file type for a specific extension.
$ assoc ${-txt}
try on your machine

The command assoc ${-txt} is using variables in a shell or script environment.

The ${-txt} part is using the variable -txt. When using the $ symbol and curly brackets {}, it indicates that a variable is being referenced.

So, the command assoc ${-txt} is essentially accessing the value stored in the -txt variable and using it in some way. Without further context, it's difficult to determine the exact purpose or result of this command.

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.
