In Linux, the -c option is commonly used with various commands to specify that the following argument is a command to be executed. For example, in the context of the bash shell, bash -c 'command' allows you to run a specific command string directly from the command line. Similarly, tools like gcc use -c to indicate that the source files should be compiled into object files without linking. The exact behavior can vary depending on the command it is used with.
