The command ghcup set ghc ${version} is related to the ghcup tool, which is used for managing multiple versions of the Glasgow Haskell Compiler (GHC) on a system.

Here's the breakdown of the command:

ghcup: ghcup is the command-line interface for the GHCup tool. It allows you to install, manage, and switch between different versions of GHC on your system.
set ghc ${version}: This is the specific sub-command used with ghcup to set the active version of GHC. ${version} is a placeholder that represents the desired version of GHC you want to set. You should replace ${version} with the actual version number you intend to use.

By running ghcup set ghc ${version}, you are instructing ghcup to set the version of GHC as the active version. This means that when you use GHC-related commands, it will use the specified version. For example, if you compiled Haskell code using GHC, it would use this version.

Overall, this command allows you to switch between different installed versions of GHC on your system using the ghcup tool.
