The command protontricks -s ${game_name}
is used to run a script called protontricks
and pass an argument -s
along with a game name. Here's what each part of the command does:
protontricks
: It is the name of the script or program that is being executed. In this case, it is theprotontricks
script.-s
: It is an option or flag passed to theprotontricks
script. The specific meaning of this flag depends on the script itself.${game_name}
: It is a placeholder for the name of the game. The actual name of the game should be provided instead of${game_name}
when running the command. This allows you to pass the name of the game as an argument to the script.
In summary, when running this command, you are executing the protontricks
script and passing the -s
flag along with the name of the game as an argument. The behavior of the script is determined by the -s
option and how it handles the provided game name argument.
