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 mega-
	      tools.

       --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  ParallelTransfers	>  1, upload speed limit is applied to
	      each transfer individually.

       --proxy <proxy>
	      Use proxy	server to connect to mega.nz.  This  option  overrides
	      config  file settings.  More information can be found in libcurl
	      documentation	 at	  <https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/CUR-
	      LOPT_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 connec-
	      tions.  You have to specify IP address bound to some of your lo-
	      cal 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 re-
	      solve 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...'
