The command id3v2 --list ${filename1-mp3 filename2-mp3 ---} is used to list the ID3 tags of one or more MP3 files.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

id3v2: This is the name of the command-line utility used for manipulating ID3 tags in MP3 files.
--list: This is an option or flag provided to the id3v2 command, specifying that we want to list the ID3 tags of the specified MP3 files.
${filename1-mp3 filename2-mp3 ---}: This is a placeholder indicating that multiple MP3 file names can be provided. For example, you can replace ${filename1-mp3 filename2-mp3 ---} with file1.mp3 file2.mp3 to list the ID3 tags for those particular MP3 files.

Each MP3 file specified will have its ID3 tags listed, including information such as the title, artist, album, track number, and other metadata stored in the ID3 tag.
