d <bookmark_name>

#!/bin/bash

# Delete Bookmark
d {{bookmark_name}}

import subprocess

# Delete Bookmark
# Make sure to replace <placeholders> with actual values
def run_command():
    cmd = [
        "d",
        "<bookmark_name>"
    ]
    
    try:
        print(f"Executing: {' '.join(cmd)}")
        subprocess.run(cmd, check=True)
    except subprocess.CalledProcessError as e:
        print(f"Error: {e}")
    except FileNotFoundError:
