zek: Generate a Go struct from a given XML from `stdin` and display output on `stdout`.
$ cat ${path-to-input-xml} | zek
try on your machine

This command is a combination of two separate commands, "cat" and "zek", with a pipe "|" used to pass the output of the first command as input to the second command.

  1. "cat" is a command-line utility that stands for "concatenate", and it is used to display the contents of a file on the terminal. In this case, "${path-to-input-xml}" represents the path or location of an input XML file. So, the command "cat ${path-to-input-xml}" is used to display the contents of the specified input XML file on the terminal.

  2. "zek" is another command-line utility or program that is being executed after the "cat" command. Without further information about "zek", it is difficult to explain its specific functionalities or purposes. It could be a custom program or a third-party tool with its own set of functionalities.

Overall, this command is used to display the contents of an input XML file using the "cat" command and then pass that output as input to the "zek" command using the pipe "|" symbol.
