This command seems to be using the "cot" command with a few different options and arguments:

  • --line ${1} specifies the line number to be displayed. The ${1} is a variable that represents the first argument passed to the command.
  • --column ${80} specifies the column number to be displayed. The ${80} is a variable that represents the value 80, indicating the column number.
  • ${filename} represents the name of the file that will be processed or displayed.

Overall, the command is using the "cot" command to display a specific line and column from a given file. The line and column values are specified using command-line arguments.
