The qutebrowser --basedir ${path-to-directory}
command is used to launch the qutebrowser web browser with a specific base directory.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
-
qutebrowser
: This is the command to launch the qutebrowser web browser. -
--basedir
: This is an option or flag that specifies the base directory for qutebrowser. -
${path-to-directory}
: This is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual path to the desired directory. This is where the browser will store its data, such as configuration files, bookmarks, history, and cache.
By using the --basedir
option and providing a specific directory path, you can customize where qutebrowser will store its data rather than using the default location. This can be helpful if you want to keep your browser data separate or if you need multiple instances of qutebrowser with different data directories.
