${command}

$ ${command} | cut --${select}=${select1}

try on your machine

This command performs two operations:

${command} represents a placeholder for a specific command that is to be executed. It is assumed that this command produces some output.
| is a pipe symbol, which is used to redirect the output of the previous command to the input of the next command.
cut is a command-line utility that is used to extract specific sections (columns) of lines from input. It takes options and arguments to specify which sections to cut.
--${select} is an option parameter that specifies the field delimiter. ${select} is assumed to be the value of the field delimiter.
=${select1} is an argument that specifies which section of the input to cut. ${select1} is assumed to be the value of the section to be extracted.

In summary, this command takes the output of ${command}, specifies the field delimiter as ${select}, and extracts the section specified by ${select1} using the cut command.
