xml-unescape:tldr:2f5e8
This command is used to echo (display) a string that is passed as an argument, but before echoing, it is processed by the "xml unescape" command.
The echo
command is commonly used in shell scripting to print or display the specified string or variable on the console.
${<a1>}
is a placeholder for a variable named "a1". The actual value of "a1" is expected to be provided when running the command.
The |
symbol represents a pipe, which allows the output of one command to be used as the input for another command.
The xml unescape
command is used to decode or unescape XML entities in a given string. XML entities are special characters that are represented using certain codes in XML documents (e.g., &
, <
, >
, etc.). The "xml unescape" command converts these escaped characters back to their original form.
So, in summary, this command takes the value of variable a1, passes it through the "xml unescape" command to convert any escaped XML entities, and then echoes the result on the console.
