firefox: Launch Firefox and open a web page.
$ firefox ${https:--www-duckduckgo-com}
try on your machine

The command "firefox ${https:--www-duckduckgo-com}" is using the Firefox web browser to access a specific website URL.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "firefox": This is the command to launch the Firefox web browser.
  • "${https:--www-duckduckgo-com}": This part seems to be a placeholder or variable that represents a URL. However, the syntax seems incorrect. It appears to be using hyphens (-) instead of periods (.) to separate the different parts of the website's domain name. It should be written as "https://www.duckduckgo.com" for the correct syntax.

Assuming the correct syntax, the command would open the Firefox browser and navigate to the specified URL: "https://www.duckduckgo.com".

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.
