firefox: Open a new window.
$ firefox --new-window ${https:--www-duckduckgo-com}
try on your machine
The given command is for opening a new window in the Mozilla Firefox web browser with the URL https://www.duckduckgo.com
.
Let's break down the command:
firefox
: It is the command to launch the Firefox browser.--new-window
: This is an argument or option provided to thefirefox
command. It instructs Firefox to open a new browser window.${https:--www-duckduckgo-com}
:${}
is typically used for environment variables or script variables, but in this case, it seems like a mistake in the command. It appears to be an attempt to add the URL to be opened in the new window. However, it is not in a valid format, with the dashes instead of dots separating the parts of the URL. So, this part of the command is incorrect.
To make the command work properly, the URL should be modified as follows:
firefox --new-window https://www.duckduckgo.com
This amended command would open a new window in Firefox with the URL https://www.duckduckgo.com
.

never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
