I want to simply be able to open a website from a curl command. I haven't been able to find anything related as of yet. All the results that pop up are mainly for mobile apps and their respective development languages. I want to be able to do:
curl <some flag or option> google.com
And then the google.com webpage pops up. Is something like this possible?
