powershell: Describe the format of data sent to PowerShell.
$ powershell -InputFormat ${select}
try on your machine

The command powershell -InputFormat ${select} is an example of a PowerShell command being executed in a command line or shell environment.

Here's a breakdown of each component:

  • powershell: This is the executable used to launch the PowerShell command-line interface.
  • -InputFormat: This parameter is used to specify the format of the input to be used by the PowerShell command. The ${select} appears to be a placeholder, and its actual value or purpose is not clear from the given command. It could potentially be a variable, input data, or an expression that defines the input format.

It's important to note that without further context, it's challenging to determine the exact purpose or functionality of this command, as the actual value of ${select} is unknown. The purpose and behavior of the command would depend on the value provided for the ${select} variable or expression.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
