godot: Execute a standalone GDScript file (the script must inherit from `SceneTree` or `MainLoop`).
$ godot -s ${script-gd}
try on your machine
The command "godot -s ${script-gd}" is used to execute a Godot script from the command line.
Here's the breakdown of the command:
- "godot" is the name of the Godot Engine executable.
- "-s" is a command line argument that specifies that a script should be executed.
- "${script-gd}" is a placeholder for the actual script file that you want to execute. The command expects you to replace "${script-gd}" with the file path of the script you want to run. The script file should have the ".gd" extension, which is the file extension for Godot scripts.
So, when you run this command by replacing "${script-gd}" with the actual script file path, Godot Engine will execute the specified script.

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