virt-manager: Show domain details window.
$ virt-manager --show-domain-editor ${select}
try on your machine

The command "virt-manager --show-domain-editor ${select}" is used to open the domain editor in a virtual machine management tool called virt-manager.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "virt-manager" is the main command to launch the virt-manager tool.
  • "--show-domain-editor" is an option for the virt-manager command that instructs it to open the domain editor. The domain editor is used to manage and configure the virtual machine domains.
  • "${select}" is a placeholder variable that represents a specific domain to be selected in the domain editor. The actual value of "${select}" should be provided when executing the command.

In summary, the command opens the virt-manager tool and displays the domain editor, allowing you to manage virtual machine domains. The specific domain to be selected is passed as an argument through the "${select}" variable.
