screenkey: Change the format of the key modifiers displayed on screen.
$ screenkey --mods-mode ${select}
try on your machine

The command you provided is "screenkey --mods-mode ${select}".

The "screenkey" command is used to display keyboard input on the screen.

The "--mods-mode" flag is an option that specifies the mode in which the modifiers (such as Shift, Ctrl, Alt, etc.) are displayed. In this case, "${select}" is a placeholder or variable that represents the selected mode. The specific mode is not provided in the command you provided, so it could be any value (e.g., normal, highlight, underline, etc.).

The command, when executed with the appropriate values, will start the screenkey program and display keyboard input on the screen in the specified modifiers mode.

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.
