The `sfdk-emulator-show` command is a tool used to display information about the running SFDK (Software Development Kit) emulator. This information includes details such as the emulator's name, status (running or stopped), port number, and any associated device identifiers. It's useful for developers working with SFDK emulators to verify emulator configuration and connection settings. The command typically retrieves this information from the emulator's control interface or a configuration file. The exact output and available options may vary depending on the specific SFDK version and emulator implementation. By using this tool, developers can quickly gain insight into the state of their SFDK emulators and troubleshoot any connection or configuration problems.
The command is part of the SFDK command suite and intended to be used alongside other emulator control commands (e.g., start, stop, list) for managing the emulator lifecycle.

The `sfdk-emulator-show` command relies on the SFDK environment being properly configured. Errors may occur if the emulator is not running, or if the command is executed outside of the SFDK environment.

The command usually returns 0 on success. Non-zero values indicate errors, such as emulator not found or configuration issues.

The output format may vary based on the SFDK version. It usually displays information in a human-readable format or a structured format like JSON or XML. The output could contain Emulator Name, Status, Port, Device ID, SFDK Version, and any other relevant configuration parameters.

The `sfdk-emulator-show` command was developed as part of the SFDK suite of tools to provide developers with a way to monitor and manage emulator instances. The command evolved alongside the SFDK emulator itself, with new features and options added to support different emulator versions and configurations. Its primary purpose is to aid developers in their testing and debugging workflows.
