silicon: Generate an image from `stdin`.
$ ${command} | silicon --output ${path-to-output_image}
try on your machine

This command involves the use of variables and piping in a command line interface.

The command itself is represented by ${command}, which is a placeholder for the actual command that will be executed. The output of this command is then piped (represented by the | symbol) to another command called "silicon".

The "--output" flag is used to specify the output file path for the "silicon" command. It expects a value, which is represented by ${path-to-output_image}. This is another variable that should be replaced with the actual path to the desired output image file.

Overall, this command runs a given command (represented by ${command}), captures its output, and passes it as input to the "silicon" command. The "silicon" command then processes this input and generates an output image file at the specified path (${path-to-output_image}).
