The command "rofi -show run" is used to launch the Rofi application with the "run" mode enabled.

Rofi is a window switcher, application launcher, and dmenu replacement. It provides a way to quickly switch between open windows, launch applications, and execute commands using a text-based interface.

By using the "-show run" option, Rofi will display a prompt where you can enter the name of an application or command to run. It will then present a list of matching results based on your input, allowing you to select one and execute it.

Overall, this command opens Rofi in "run" mode, enabling you to search and launch applications or commands efficiently.
