The tldr command is a simplified and summarised version of the man command, a manual tool for accessing detailed documentation and information on various commands in Linux. tldr stands for "Too Long; Didn't Read" and is designed to provide quick and concise explanations of commands.
In this particular command, tldr -p linux nl, we are using tldr to access the simplified manual for the nl command, with the additional flag -p to specify the platform or operating system as Linux.
Now, the nl command, short for "number lines," is used to number lines in a file or standard input. It is typically used to add line numbers to the output of other commands or to number lines in a file for reference purposes.
By running tldr -p linux nl, we can quickly access a simplified version of the nl command's manual specific to Linux, which will provide a brief explanation of its usage, options, and examples.
