Description

For example: if I have this command

git clone --paramater https://github.com/something

All I have to do is:

echo git clone --parameter https://github.com/something | explain

Then I will get the relevant information like on the webserver.

What do you think?

Determine how a command supplied through a shell pipe should be received and what output should match the webserver; the work is done when the proposed piped invocation is supported with an agreed user-facing behavior.
