kwrite: Open a text file with a specific encoding.
$ kwrite --encoding=${UTF-8} ${filename}
try on your machine

This command is invoking the text editor "kwrite" with the following options and parameters:

  • --encoding=${UTF-8}: This option specifies the encoding to be used for opening and saving the file. In this case, it sets the encoding to UTF-8, which is a character encoding capable of representing all possible characters in the Unicode standard.

  • ${filename}: This is a placeholder for the actual name of the file you want to open or create using kwrite. Replace ${filename} with the desired file name or path.

Overall, the command is instructing the kwrite text editor to open a file (specified by ${filename}) with UTF-8 encoding.
