tr "translates or deletes" characters in one set with another
so tr id di will replace d's with i's and i's with d's.

In your email your wrote xfmeida-remote instead of xfmedia-remote.
The person who replied to you just wrote "tr id di" as a clever way to imply
that you should fix your spelling mistake.

If you made a typo in your script, thats your problem, if its a typo in your
email, read the man page for xfmedia-remote.
Thats what he was trying to say.
