megatools-dl: Interactively choose which files to download.
$ megatools-dl --choose-files ${https:--mega-nz----}
try on your machine

The command megatools-dl --choose-files ${https:--mega-nz----} is used to download files from the MEGA cloud storage service using the megatools command-line tool.

Let's break down the command and its components:

  • megatools-dl: This is the command for the megatools tool to download files from MEGA. It is followed by options and arguments to specify the details of the download.

  • --choose-files: This option allows the user to select specific files they want to download from a given MEGA link. It instructs the megatools tool to prompt the user for file selection.

  • ${https:--mega-nz----}: This part of the command is a placeholder indicating that the actual MEGA link is supposed to be placed here. MEGA links typically start with https://mega.nz/. The ${} syntax is often used as a placeholder in command-line commands, indicating that the value should be replaced with a specific value when executing the command.

So, when executing this command, you would replace ${https:--mega-nz----} with the actual MEGA link from which you want to download files. For example:

megatools-dl --choose-files https://mega.nz/your-download-link-here

After running the command, megatools would prompt you to select the specific files you want to download from the provided MEGA link.
