pluma: Open documents using a specific encoding.

pluma

$ pluma --encoding ${WINDOWS-1252} ${filename1 filename2 ---}

try on your machine

The command "pluma --encoding ${WINDOWS-1252} ${filename1 filename2 ---}" is used to open multiple files in the Pluma text editor with a specific character encoding.

Here's a breakdown of the different parts of the command:

"pluma" is the name of the command or executable. Pluma is a text editor used in some Linux distributions.
"--encoding ${WINDOWS-1252}" is an option passed to the Pluma command. It specifies the character encoding to use for the opened files, in this case, Windows-1252. Character encoding represents how characters are represented and stored in a computer. Windows-1252 is a commonly used character encoding for Western European languages.
"${filename1 filename2 ---}" represents the list of files to be opened in Pluma. The filenames are separated by spaces and enclosed in curly braces. The "---" is used to signify the end of the list of filenames.

So, when you execute this command, the Pluma text editor will open the specified files (filename1, filename2, etc.) with the Windows-1252 encoding, allowing you to view and edit the contents of those files.
