Translate [command tokens](Tokens.md#command-tokens) into their OS or action specific equivalents.
```lua
cmd = os.translateCommands("cmd", map)
```
### Parameters ###
`cmd` is the command line to be translated. May be a single string or an array of strings.
`map` is either an [OS identifier](system.md) (e.g. "windows") to use one of Premake's built-in token mappings, or a table containing a custom mapping. If omitted, the currently targeted OS identifier will be used.
### Return Value ###
A new command line string with all command tokens replaced.
### Availability ###
Premake 5.0 or later.
### Examples ###
```lua
-- translate for the currently targeted OS
cmd = os.translateCommands("{COPY} file1.txt file2.txt")
-- translate for a specific OS
cmd = os.translateCommands("{COPY} file1.txt file2.txt", "windows")
-- translate using a custom map
cmd = os.translateCommands("{COPY} file1.txt file2.txt", {
copy = function(v)
return "dup " .. v
end
})
```
