Here's a breakdown of the command:
highlight

is likely a placeholder that needs to be replaced with the actual value.--print-style
: This option tells the tool to also print the style information.--style ${theme_name}
: This option specifies the theme or style to be used for syntax highlighting.${theme_name}
is again likely a placeholder that needs to be replaced with the actual theme name.--syntax ${language}
: This option specifies the programming language or syntax to be highlighted.${language}
is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual language name.--stdout
