lftp: Delete multiple files on the remote server.

$ mrm ${path-to-*-txt}

try on your machine

The command "mrm ${path-to-*-txt}" is written in Unix/Linux shell scripting syntax.

Here's the breakdown of the command:

"mrm" is the name of the command being executed. It stands for "remove multiple" and is likely a custom command or alias defined by the user. Typically, the "mrm" command would remove multiple files at once.
"${path-to-*-txt}" is a parameter passed to the "mrm" command. The curly braces "${}" are used for parameter expansion in Unix shell scripting.
"path-to--txt" represents a placeholder for a file path pattern. The asterisk "" is a wildcard character that matches any sequence of characters, and ".txt" is a file name pattern matching all files with the ".txt" extension. So, "path-to--txt" could be replaced with an actual file path or a pattern that matches multiple file paths.

In summary, the command "mrm ${path-to-*-txt}" is likely used to remove multiple files with the ".txt" extension, where the specific file paths or patterns are provided as an argument to the command.
