sherlock: Search for a specific username on social networks saving the results to a file.
$ sherlock ${username} --output ${filename}
try on your machine
The command "sherlock ${username} --output ${filename}" is used to execute the Sherlock tool with two parameters: a username and an output filename.
Here's the breakdown of each part of the command:
- "sherlock" is the name of the tool or program being executed. It is assumed that this tool is installed on the system.
- "${username}" is a placeholder for the specific username or account name you want to search for across different social media platforms. You need to replace "${username}" with the actual username you intend to search for.
- "--output" is a flag or option that specifies that you want to define an output filename for the results.
- "${filename}" is a placeholder for the desired output filename. You need to replace "${filename}" with the actual name you want to give to the output file.
To use this command, replace "${username}" with the target username you want to search for, and "${filename}" with the desired name for the output file. For example, if you want to search for the username "johnsmith" and save the results in a file named "sherlock_results.txt", you would use the command "sherlock johnsmith --output sherlock_results.txt".
