xed:tldr:31fb3

This command "xed --encoding ${WINDOWS-1252} ${filename1 filename2 ---}" is used to open and edit one or multiple files named "filename1", "filename2", and so on (represented by "...").

Explanation of the command parts:

• "xed" is the command to open the xed text editor. It is assumed that xed is already installed on the system.
• "--encoding" is an option that specifies the character encoding of the files.
• "${WINDOWS-1252}" is a placeholder for the actual character encoding that should be used, in this case, it is set to the "WINDOWS-1252" encoding. This encoding is commonly used for Windows-based systems.
• "${filename1 filename2 ---}" represents the file names to be opened in the xed editor. You can provide one or more filenames, separated by spaces.

So, when you execute this command, the xed editor will open the specified files ("filename1", "filename2", etc.) and will use the "WINDOWS-1252" encoding to display and edit the content of these files.
