license: Generate a license and save it to a file.
$ license -o ${filename} ${license_name}
try on your machine

The command "license -o ${filename} ${license_name}" appears to be a shell command that requires two arguments: ${filename} and ${license_name}.

Here's an explanation of each part of the command:

  • "license" is most likely a command or an executable file. It could be a custom program or a system utility specifically designed for license-related operations.
  • "-o" is an option flag that is used to specify the output file name. The option is followed by ${filename}, which is a placeholder for the desired output file name. You would need to replace ${filename} with the actual name you want to use for the output file.
  • ${license_name} is another placeholder that represents the name or identifier of the specific license. This could be the name of a software license (e.g., "MIT", "GPL", "Apache License 2.0") or any other type of license. Just like with ${filename}, you would need to replace ${license_name} with the actual name or identifier of the license you want to use.

Overall, the command is likely used to generate or manage licenses, with the "-o" option specifying the output file name and the ${license_name} representing the specific license to be used.
