mkfile: Create an empty file of 15 kilobytes.
$ mkfile -n ${15k} ${filename}
try on your machine

The command "mkfile -n ${15k} ${filename}" is used to create a file with a specific size and name.

Let's break down the command:

  1. "mkfile" is the command being used to create the file.
  2. "-n" is an option used with the "mkfile" command to specify the size of the file.
  3. "${15k}" is a variable that represents the size of the file. In this case, it is set to 15 kilobytes (15k).
  4. "${filename}" is another variable that represents the name of the file you want to create. It should be replaced with the specific name you want for the file.

To use this command, replace "${filename}" with the desired name and run the command. The command will create a file with the specified name and size (15 kilobytes in this case).
