The wifi-password -q command is used to retrieve the password of the currently connected Wi-Fi network in a terminal or command prompt.

When executed, the wifi-password -q command will query the operating system for the password of the network you are currently connected to and display it in the terminal or command prompt window. This can be useful if you need to share the Wi-Fi password with someone or if you have forgotten the password and need to access the network from another device.

Note that this command may not be available on all operating systems or distributions. It typically works on Unix-like systems such as macOS and Linux.
