wine: Run a specific program in background.

wine

$ wine start ${command}

try on your machine

The command "wine start ${command}" is used in the Linux system to run a Windows application through Wine (Wine Is Not an Emulator). Wine is a compatibility layer that allows Linux users to run Windows applications without using a virtual machine or dual-booting with Windows.

Here is a breakdown of the command:

"wine": Indicates that the following command will be executed in the Wine environment.
"start": This is a command within Wine that starts a given executable file or script.
"${command}": ${command} represents a placeholder for the actual Windows application or command you want to run. You should replace it with the name of the executable file or command you wish to execute.

For example, if you want to run the Windows application called "notepad.exe" using Wine, you would replace ${command} with "notepad.exe":

wine start notepad.exe

This command would then launch the notepad application within the Wine environment so that it can be used in Linux as if it were a native application.
