DESCRIPTION

24       Megatools is a collection of programs for accessing Mega service from a
25       command line of your desktop or server.
26
27       Megatools allow you to copy individual files as well as entire
28       directory trees to and from the cloud. You can also perform streaming
29       downloads for example to preview videos and audio files, without
30       needing to download the entire file.
31
32       Megatools are robust and optimized for fast operation - as fast as Mega
33       servers allow. Memory requirements and CPU utilization are kept at
34       minimum.
35
36       You can register account using a megareg(1) tool, with the benefit of
37       having true control of your encryption keys.
38
39       Mega website can be found at http://mega.nz.
40
41       Megatools can be downloaded at http://megatools.megous.com

72       See megarc(5) for information about mega configuration file.
73
74       Each of the individual tools have help that can be accessed using
75       --help parameter.
76

SESSION CACHE

78       If you modify cloud filesystem from the Mega.nz website or from another
79       computer, you’ll need to refresh your session cache. This can be done
80       by using the --reload option to any tool, or by waiting for a cache
81       timeout (default timeout is set to 10 minutes).
82

REMOTE FILESYSTEM

84       Mega.nz filesystem is represented as a tree of nodes of various types.
85       Nodes are identified by a 8 character node handles (eg. 7Fdi3ZjC).
86       Structure of the filesystem is not encrypted.
87
88       Megatools maps node tree structure to a traditional filesystem paths
89       (eg. /Root/SomeFile.DAT).
90
91       NOTE: By the nature of Mega.nz storage, several files in the directory
92       can have the same name. To allow access to such files, the names of
93       conflicting files are extended by appending dot and their node handle
94       like this:
95
96           /Root/conflictingfile
97           /Root/conflictingfile.7Fdi3ZjC
98           /Root/conflictingfile.mEU23aSD
99
100       You need to be aware of several special folders:
101
102       /Root
103           Writable directory representing the root of the filesystem.
104
105       /Trash
106           Trash directory where Mega.nz web client moves deleted files. This
107           directory is not used by megatools when removing files.
108
109       /Inbox
110           Not sure.
111
112       /Contacts
113           Directory containing subdirectories representing your contacts
114           list. If you want to add contacts to the list, simply create
115           subdirectory named after the contact you want to add.
116
117       /Contacts/<email>
118           Directories representing individual contacts in your contacts list.
119           These directories contain folders that others shared with you. All
120           shared files are read-only, at the moment.
