Do you know how to open a terminal window?  If not, click on "Applications", then type in "terminal" in the search box at the top.  That will put you at the Command Line Interface (CLI) where you can enter the appropriate commands.  Give it a shot.

Really confused; what is this? Where is this text window? In Libre-Office? Or another text editor? Which one? I am looking for a text window which contains this text or do I enter this text? What does 'not darktable-cli do? What is the meaning of the text string <path><to><directory> (It seems to be syntactically incorrect: what entity is 'less than 'path' ? is 'path' both greater than and less than 'to' at the same time? In data terms, what are the values of these variables? Where do I find them ?). if I enter this text, does it need to be saved in a specific format or a specific location? Will some other application process this text ? If so, which one? How does it relate to darktable ?

Not sure that I fully understand 'run from the command-line' to import a file or a folder, but when I pass the address of a previously unseen folder
to darktable using CLI it opens that folder with no problem, giving me
darkroom access to all the included images. I don't see any errors, but it should be noted that I wouldn't know where to look for them if there were any. I cannot tell if I am using OpenCL or not. A comprehensive search on the internet returns NO 'hits' which discuss OpenCL on Linux Mint 20, so I have no information on how to tell if OpenCL is installed, or being used. I
am using Linux Mint 20 driving an nVidia GTX 645 OEM card, using driver
nvidia-driver-455 version 455.38-0ubuntu0-20.04.1.

When run from the command-line, do you see any errors?
Do you use OpenCL? If yes, which card and driver?
What operating system?
