dillo: Launch Dillo and open a specific URL.
$ dillo ${duckduckgo-com}
try on your machine

The command "dillo ${duckduckgo-com}" is using the "dillo" command-line web browser to open the website specified by the variable "${duckduckgo-com}".

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "dillo": It is a command-line web browser available in some Linux distributions. It enables browsing websites using a text-based interface.
  • "${duckduckgo-com}": It appears to be a variable referencing a website URL. The specific value of the variable is not visible in the command itself, but it is assumed to contain the URL of the DuckDuckGo search engine website (duckduckgo.com).

Since the command uses the "dillo" browser, it would attempt to open the DuckDuckGo website for browsing, displaying the content using the command-line interface.
