chromium: Open a specific URL or file.
$ chromium ${select}
try on your machine

The command "chromium ${select}" is written in the bash scripting language and it seems to invoke the "chromium" command with a variable called "select" as an argument.

In bash, the "$" before a variable name is used to retrieve the value stored in that variable. So, assuming the "select" variable holds a value, it will be substituted in place of "${select}" when the command is executed.

For example, if the value of "select" is "https://www.example.com", the command will be interpreted as "chromium https://www.example.com" and the Chromium browser will be launched, attempting to open the specified URL.

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.
