This command is used to install a package in the espanso text expansion software.

Espanso is a tool that allows you to define abbreviations or shortcuts that will expand into longer pieces of text. It can be helpful for automating repetitive typing tasks.

In the command "espanso install ${package_name}", the "${package_name}" is a placeholder for the name of the specific package you want to install. You should replace it with the actual name of the package you want to install.

To use this command, you need to have espanso installed on your system. Once you run this command with the appropriate package name, espanso will fetch and install the specified package. The package could include predefined text expansions, scripting functions, or other features to enhance the functionality of espanso.

After installation, you can configure and activate the package in espanso's configuration file. The installed package will then be available for use, enabling you to expand abbreviations into larger pieces of text in various applications.
