 After all this is done, we'll map it to a keyboard shortcut so it can be used anywhere on the XFCE desktop (although this won't work inside games or minimenu because the shortcuts rely on XFCE).

 Breakdown of what it does:
-'#!/bin/bash' - We're telling Linux "Hey! This file is a script!". Bash is a shell for Linux that runs inside a terminal. What's the difference? Well the terminal program, or any terminal in Linux, just deals with taking in lines of text (the line you typed in) and output text from the shell. You can consider it a frontend for the shell, which does all the actual work of figuring out what to do with your inputted text, and what to send back to you. The shell itself talks to Linux, like a middle man.

 Sudo - Stands for 'superuser do'. We are saying 'run this admin command please' and then sudo will say 'Okay fine, but give me your password!'. This is a Linux security feature to prevent hackers and bad scripts (in theory) from messing up your system without asking you first.
