doas: Run a command as root.
$ doas ${command}
try on your machine
The command "doas" is a privilege escalation command, similar to "sudo" in Linux systems. It allows a user to execute a command with the privileges of another user, usually the root user, without needing to switch to that user. The syntax "doas ${command}" is a way to run a specific command with elevated privileges using the "doas" command. The "${command}" variable is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual command you want to run with elevated privileges. For example, if you want to run the "ls" command with elevated privileges, you would use the following command: ```bash doas ls
