Description

A neat feature would be to add a button that will return the command used for the options selected. This would serve multiple purposes:
- It would be nice to see a live example of what some of the available commands on the CLI are.
- It would help tie in [Explore.ipld.io](http://explore.ipld.io/), [dag.ipfs.tech](dag.ipfs.tech) & [cid.ipfs.tech](https://cid.ipfs.tech/)
- This will help create tutorials and help users understand the basics of what happens when a file gets added to IPFS.

I want to take the CID from dag.ipfs.tech to explore.ipld.io and look at the data there. If I knew the exact command then I could add it to ipfs on my own machine and see it later on the explore site. This would make it easier to explain the different block/dag altering options there are, how the data format looks, and how the CIDs also change.
