choco-list: Specify a custom source to display packages from.
$ choco list --source ${select}
try on your machine

The command "choco list --source ${select}" is used in the context of Chocolatey, which is a package manager for Windows operating systems.

Explanation:

  • "choco" refers to the Chocolatey command-line interface (CLI).
  • "list" is a subcommand that displays a list of packages installed or available from a specified source.
  • "--source" is an option that allows you to specify the package source from which you want to list the packages.
  • "${select}" is a placeholder that needs to be replaced with a valid package source.

For example, if you want to list packages from the official Chocolatey community repository, you would replace "${select}" with "chocolatey": choco list --source chocolatey

This command will then display a list of packages available in the Chocolatey community repository.
