xed: Open file(s) in Xcode, create if it doesn't exist.
$ xed --create ${filename1}
try on your machine

This command, "xed --create ${filename1}", is running the text editor "xed" with the option "--create" and the argument "${filename1}".

Here's a breakdown of the elements:

  • "xed": It refers to the name of the text editor program, which is being executed with specific options and arguments.
  • "--create": This is an option or flag passed to the text editor. It instructs the editor to create a new file.
  • "${filename1}": This is an argument, denoted by the placeholder "${filename1}". It represents the name of the file to be created.

Overall, the command will open the text editor "xed" and instruct it to create a new file with the name specified by the variable or input provided as "${filename1}".
