NAME
       megatools rm - Remove files and folders from your Mega.nz account

SYNOPSIS
	      megatools	rm <remotepaths>...
	      megatools	rm /Contacts/<contactemail>

DESCRIPTION
       Removes files and folders from your Mega.nz account.

       NOTE: This command removes folders recursively without asking. Be care-
       ful.

       As  a special case, by removing a folder	under /Contacts, you're	remov-
       ing a <contactemail> from your contacts list.

OPTIONS
       -u <email> , --username <email>
	      Account username (email)

       -p <password> , --password <password>
	      Account password

       --no-ask-password
	      Never ask	interactively for a password

       --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 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

       <remotepaths>
	      One or more remote files or directories to remove.

       <contactemail>
	      Valid email address of a contact you want	to remove.

EXAMPLES
        Remove	a folder:

	 $ megatools ls	/Root
	 /Root
	 /Root/MyNewFolder
	 $ megatools rm	/Root/MyNewFolder
	 $ megatools ls	/Root
	 /Root

        Remove	contact	from your contacts list:

	 $ megatools rm	/Contacts/some@email.com

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).
       Structure 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.
