Afterword
and
Try running the command. The xargs command separates the output file path string into spaces, allowing you to open it with the open command. Since xargs -n 1 on Windows and Ubuntu only recognizes one argument, you pass each argument as an option. The start command on Windows is used because the open command cannot be used.
