# get
Open given cells as text.
Syntax: `get ...args`
### Parameters:
* `args`: optionally return additional data by path
## Examples
If we run `sys` we receive a table which contains tables itself:
```shell
> sys
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┯━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┯━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┯━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┯━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┯━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┯━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
host │ cpu │ disks │ mem │ temp │ net │ battery
────────────────────────────────────────┼────────────────────────────────────┼────────────────┼───────────────────────────────────────┼────────────────┼────────────────┼────────────────
[row arch hostname name release uptime │ [row cores current ghz max ghz min │ [table 7 rows][row free swap free swap total total][table 6 rows][table 3 rows][table 1 rows]
users] │ ghz] │ │ │ │ │
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┷━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┷━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┷━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┷━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┷━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┷━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
```
To access one of the embedded tables we can use the `get` command
```shell
> sys | get cpu
━━━━━━━┯━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┯━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┯━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
cores │ current ghz │ min ghz │ max ghz
───────┼───────────────────┼────────────────────┼───────────────────
4 │ 1.530000000000000 │ 0.5000000000000000 │ 3.500000000000000
━━━━━━━┷━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┷━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┷━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
```
```shell
> sys | get battery
━━━━━━━━┯━━━━━━━━━━┯━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
vendor │ model │ mins to full
────────┼──────────┼──────────────────
SMP │ L14M2P21 │ 16.7024000000000
━━━━━━━━┷━━━━━━━━━━┷━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
```
There's also the ability to pass multiple parameters to `get` which results in an output like this
```shell
sys | get cpu battery
━━━┯━━━━━━━┯━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┯━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┯━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┯━━━━━━━━┯━━━━━━━━━━┯━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
# │ cores │ current ghz │ min ghz │ max ghz │ vendor │ model │ mins to full
