nvim: Open a file.

nvim

$ nvim ${filename}

try on your machine

The command "nvim ${filename}" is used to open a file named "${filename}" in the Neovim text editor.

Neovim is an improved version of the Vim editor, designed to be more customizable and extensible while maintaining compatibility with Vim. It is mainly used for editing and manipulating text files, especially popular among software developers due to its powerful features and support for various plugins.

In the command, "${filename}" is typically a placeholder for the actual file name you want to open. You need to replace it with the specific name of the file you want to edit. For example, if you want to open a file named "example.txt", you would execute the command as:

nvim example.txt

By running this command, Neovim will start and the specified file will be opened in a new buffer or tab for editing.
