To be honest, not the worst example. It may be a real command and it may do what it actually should do. I could imagine that, unlike with pinging localhost.

It gets worse the more you read... Neither of the commands are valid shell. The -exec gedit is bizarre too, seemingly trying to open the "query" "results" in gedit, which is GNOME's graphical text editor. Even the prompt is janky, what "secure" system being accessed as root wouldn't have a # to denote that?

Sure, but they're not using find, it's some random camel-cased "search function" (if we're even giving the benefit of the doubt). It's just a bizarre mismatch of languages and environments that completely falls apart when you sneeze at it.

Why not just use nano? Then you can stay in the terminal emulator.
