The command "dust --depth ${3}" is using the 'dust' command along with the '--depth' option and a variable named '3'.

The 'dust' command is a utility that helps to analyze disk usage and provides a visual representation of the disk space used by files and directories.
The '--depth' option is used to specify the maximum depth of directory recursion when analyzing disk usage. It determines how many levels deep the command should go into subdirectories to calculate their disk usage.
"${3}" is a variable placeholder that represents the value of the third positional parameter passed to the command. In shell scripting, parameters can be passed to a script or command when executing it, and these parameters are commonly referred to as positional parameters. In this case, the value of the third parameter is being used to determine the depth of analysis.

Overall, the command "dust --depth ${3}" runs the 'dust' command to analyze disk usage with a maximum depth specified by the value of the third positional parameter.
