basenc:tldr:ae17a

basenc: Encode from `stdin` with base32 encoding.
$ ${command} | basenc --base32
try on your machine

This command is using the pipe (|) operator to redirect the output of the ${command} to the basenc command-line tool with the --base32 flag.

${command} represents a placeholder for an actual command that will produce some output. The output of this command is then passed on as input to the basenc utility.

basenc is a program used for encoding and decoding data in various base encodings. In this case, the --base32 option specifies that the input data should be encoded using the Base32 encoding scheme.

So, in summary, this command takes the output of ${command}, encodes it using Base32, and then provides the encoded data as the final output.
