daps: Check if a DocBook XML file is valid.
$ daps -d ${filename-xml} validate
try on your machine

The command "daps -d ${filename-xml} validate" is used to perform validation on an XML file using the "daps" tool. Here's an explanation of each component of the command:

  • "daps": It is the name of the tool or program that is being executed. In this case, it is the "daps" tool.
  • "-d": It is an option or flag provided to the "daps" tool. It is used to specify the input file or directory to be processed.
  • "${filename-xml}": It is a variable that represents the name of the XML file. The value of this variable will be substituted in place of "${filename-xml}". It should be replaced with the actual name of the XML file you want to validate.
  • "validate": It is a subcommand or action that instructs the "daps" tool to perform validation on the specified XML file.

In summary, the command is telling the "daps" tool to perform validation on the XML file specified by the variable "${filename-xml}". The actual file name should be substituted for "${filename-xml}" in order for the command to work correctly.

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.
