hostess: Remove a domain from your hosts file.
$ hostess del ${local-example-com}
try on your machine

The command you provided is not complete, as it's missing the closing curly brace "}". Assuming that is a typo, the command appears to be:

hostess del ${local-example-com}

This command is used to remove a specific record from the Hostess DNS server.

The syntax suggests that ${local-example-com} is a placeholder for a specific domain name or hostname. The dollar sign ($) indicates that this is a shell variable. So, you need to replace ${local-example-com} with the actual domain name or hostname that you want to remove from the DNS server.

Once you substitute the placeholder, the command will be interpreted as:

hostess del example.com

Here, example.com would be the domain name or hostname you want to delete from the DNS records managed by the Hostess DNS server.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
