NAME
     megatools reg - Register new Mega.nz account

SYNOPSIS
	    megatools reg [--scripted] --register --email <email> --name <realname> --password <password>
	    megatools reg [--scripted] --verify <state> <link>

DESCRIPTION
     Registers new Mega.nz account. Registration is split into two steps:

     1.  --register: Creates a new non-verified account

     2.  --verify: Verifies account with the link that was sent to <email>

     See example of registration below.

OPTIONS
     --register
	    Create new non-verified account.

     --verify <state> <link>
	    Verify  account  previously created by megatools reg --register. You
	    need to pass <state> that was returned from megatools reg --register
	    and a verification link from the email that was sent to <email>.

     --email <email>
	    Email serves as your new account username, that you'll be  using  to
	    sign in.

	    NOTES: Beware that ATM, email format is not validated by megatools.

     --name <realname>
	    Your real (or fake) name.

     --password <password>
	    Plaintext  password.  No strength checking is done, so make sure you
	    pick a strong password yourself.

     --scripted
	    After registration, print the command that can be used to finish the
	    registration in a format suitable for scripting purposes.

     --limit-speed <speed>
	    Set maximum allowed upload and download speed in KiB/s.  This option
	    overrides config file settings. 0 means no limit.  When using Paral-
	    lelTransfers > 1, upload speed limit is applied to each transfer in-
	    dividually.

     --proxy <proxy>
	    Use proxy server to connect to mega.nz. This option overrides config
	    file settings.  More information can be found in libcurl  documenta-
	    tion  at  <https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/CURLOPT_PROXY.html>.  Some
	    acceptable values are:

	    *
	      none : Disable proxy if it was enabled in the config file.

	    *
	      socks5://localhost:9050 : Local SOCKSv5 proxy server

	    *
	      socks5h://localhost:9050 : Local SOCKSv5	proxy  server  with  DNS
	      handled by the proxy

     --netif <ifname|ip>
	    Network interface or local IP address used for outgoing connections.
	    You  have  to specify IP address bound to some of your local network
	    interfaces, when specifying an IP address.

     --ip-proto <proto>
	    Which IP protocol to prefer when connecting to mega.nz (v4,  v6,  or
	    any).   This  is  just  an	advisory option.  Megatools will resolve
	    mega.nz domain, and then use an A or AAAA record based on the stated
	    preference.

     --config <path>
	    Load configuration from a file

     --ignore-config-file
	    Disable loading .megarc

     --debug [<options>]
	    Enable debugging of various aspects of the megatools operation.  You
	    may  enable  multiple  debugging  options  separated by commas. (eg.
	    --debug api,fs)

	    Available options are:

	    *
	      http: Dump HTTP request/response details (can  be  used  to  debug
	      connection/proxy issues)

	    *
	      api: Dump Mega.nz API calls

	    *
	      fs:  Dump  Mega.nz  filesystem  (may  require --reload to actually
	      print something)

	    *
	      cache: Dump cache contents

	    *
	      tman: Dump transfer manager events

     --version
	    Show version information

EXAMPLE
     First create an non-verified account:

     $ megatools reg --register --email your@email.com --name "Your Name" --password "Your Password"

     Registration email was sent to test@megous.com. To complete registration, you must run:

       megatools reg --verify vbFFFv7AFM25etzkFXLs9A==:Z7FFbgAAAAAAAAAArL33eA==:inEONh3tmwY @LINK@

     (Where @LINK@ is registration link from the 'MEGA Signup' email)

     Now wait for a verification mail and run the command as asked:

     $ megatools reg --verify vbFFFv7AFM25etzkFXLs9A==:Z7FFbgAAAAAAAAAArL33eA==:inEONh3tmwY \
	 'https://mega.nz/#confirmciyfWXRGFNcM...'
