base32:tldr:10d8d

base32: Decode from `stdin`.
$ ${somecommand} | base32 --decode
try on your machine

This command is a shell command that uses pipes to pass the output of ${somecommand} to the base32 --decode command.

Here's a breakdown of how it works:

  1. ${somecommand}: This is a placeholder for some other command. The output of this command is passed as input to the next command through the pipe.

  2. | (pipe): This symbol is used to redirect the output of the command on the left to the input of the command on the right. In this case, it takes the output of ${somecommand} and passes it to the base32 --decode command.

  3. base32 --decode: This is a command-line tool that decodes Base32-encoded data. It takes the input from ${somecommand} (provided through the pipe) and decodes it from Base32 encoding, producing the original data as output.

In summary, this command allows you to decode Base32-encoded data by passing the encoded data as input to ${somecommand} and then running it through the base32 --decode 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.
