ksh: Execute a specific script.
$ ksh ${path-to-script-ksh}
try on your machine

The command "ksh ${path-to-script-ksh}" is used to execute a script written in the KornShell (ksh) scripting language.

Here is a breakdown of the command:

  • "ksh" is the abbreviation for the KornShell interpreter. It is used to run scripts written in the KornShell language.

  • "${path-to-script-ksh}" is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual path to the KornShell script (.ksh file) that you want to execute.

When you run this command, the "ksh" interpreter will be invoked and it will execute the KornShell script located at the specified path. This allows you to automate tasks or run a series of commands written in the KornShell language.

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.
