     NOTE: If you want to download entire directories, use megatools-copy(1).

OPTIONS
     --path <path>
	    Local  path  to  download to. If this path is a directory, files are
	    placed into the directory. If this path doesn't exist, and it's par-
	    ent directory does, the file will be downloaded to a specified  file
	    (this only works if you specify exactly one remote path).

	    If <path> is -, remote file will be streamed to stdout.

     --no-progress
	    Disable download progress reporting. This is implied when streaming.

     --disable-resume

     --reload
	    Reload filesystem cache

     --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.

	      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

	      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

REMOTE FILESYSTEM
     Mega.nz  filesystem  is  represented  as  a tree of nodes of various types.
     Nodes are identified by a 8 character node handles (eg.  7Fdi3ZjC).  Struc-
     ture of the filesystem is not encrypted.

     Megatools	maps  node tree structure to a traditional filesystem paths (eg.
     /Root/SomeFile.DAT).

     NOTE: By the nature of Mega.nz storage, several files in the directory  can
     have the same name. To allow access to such files, the names of conflicting
     files are extended by appending dot and their node handle like this:

     /Root/conflictingfile
     /Root/conflictingfile.7Fdi3ZjC
     /Root/conflictingfile.mEU23aSD

     You need to be aware of several special folders:

     /Root  Writable directory representing the root of the filesystem.

     /Trash
	    Trash  directory  where Mega.nz web client moves deleted files. This
	    directory is not used by megatools when removing files.

     /Inbox
	    Not sure.

     /Contacts
	    Directory containing subdirectories representing your contacts list.
	    If you want to add contacts to the list, simply create  subdirectory
	    named after the contact you want to add.

     /Contacts/<email>
	    Directories  representing individual contacts in your contacts list.
	    These directories contain folders that others shared with  you.  All
	    shared files are read-only, at the moment.
