rhash:tldr:006cc

rhash: Calculate the SHA3 digest of a text message.
$ rhash --sha3-256 --message '${message}'
try on your machine

The command you provided:

rhash --sha3-256 --message '${message}'

This command is using the rhash program with certain options and parameters to calculate the SHA3-256 hash of a message.

Here is a breakdown of each component:

  1. rhash: It refers to the rhash program, which is a utility used to calculate various hash functions.
  2. --sha3-256: This option specifies that the SHA3-256 hashing algorithm should be used.
  3. --message '${message}': This parameter represents the message that will be hashed. However, the command seems to be using a placeholder variable here, denoted by ${message}. It is possible that this variable is expected to be replaced with an actual message value before executing the command.

In summary, the command is instructing the rhash program to compute the SHA3-256 hash of a yet-to-be-determined message.

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.
