The command "bzip2 --verbose ${path-to-compressed_files-bz2}" is used to decompress files that have been compressed using the bzip2 algorithm. Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "bzip2": The command "bzip2" refers to the bzip2 compression utility in Unix-like operating systems. It is typically used to compress or decompress files using the bzip2 algorithm.
- "--verbose": The "--verbose" option is used to display detailed information about the compression or decompression process. In this case, it will provide information about the decompression of the specified files.
- "${path-to-compressed_files-bz2}": This is a placeholder for the actual path to the compressed files you want to decompress. You need to replace it with the correct path to your specific files. The compressed files should have the ".bz2" extension.
So, by running this command in the terminal, you will decompress the files specified by the path and receive verbose information about the decompression process.
