* A command to run programs in Nix packages, that is, to execute a run

action.  Run actions are described by uniquely hashed descriptors,
  just like build actions.  Therefore run actions can have
  dependencies, but these need not be the same as the build time
  dependencies (e.g., at runtime we can link against a different
  version of a dynamic library).  Example:

    nix run 31d6bf4c171282367065e0deecd7c579

  will run the Pan 0.13.91 newsreader with gtkspell support.
