w3m: Open a URL in monochrome mode.

$ w3m ${http:--example-com} -M

try on your machine

The command w3m ${http:--example-com} -M is using the w3m text-based web browser to access and display the webpage at http://example.com.

Let's break down the command:

w3m: This is the command to start the w3m text-based web browser.
${http:--example-com}: This is the URL of the webpage you want to visit. However, the command seems to be incorrectly written. In most cases, the correct syntax for specifying a URL would be http://example.com instead of ${http:--example-com}.
-M: This is an option for the w3m command which enables the "mouse support" mode. In this mode, the mouse can be used to navigate the web page instead of relying solely on keyboard input.

So, the command is trying to open the web page at http://example.com using the w3m browser with mouse support enabled.
