hardinfo:tldr:8c5bb
To understand this command, let's break it down into three parts:
-
"hardinfo": This is the name of the executable program or command. It is likely a system information tool that provides detailed information about hardware and software components of a computer.
-
"-r -f html": These are command-line options or parameters passed to the "hardinfo" command.
- The "-r" option stands for "report" and indicates that the command should generate a report.
- The "-f html" option specifies the format in which the report should be generated, in this case, HTML format.
-
"> hardinfo.html": This part redirects the output of the command to a file named "hardinfo.html". The ">" symbol is used for redirection in the command line and signifies that the output should be saved to the specified file.
So, when you run the command "hardinfo -r -f html > hardinfo.html", it will execute the "hardinfo" command, generate a hardware and software report in HTML format, and save it to a file named "hardinfo.html" in the current directory. This file can then be opened in a web browser to view the report.
