The command "mas list" is a command used in macOS to display a list of all the apps that have been purchased or downloaded from the Mac App Store. When you run the "mas list" command in the Terminal, it will list out the app ID, the name of the app, the current version, and any available updates for each app that has been obtained from the Mac App Store. This command is useful for users who want to quickly see a comprehensive list of the apps they have acquired from the Mac App Store, as well as check for updates for those apps.
