=back

=head1 DESCRIPTION

B<keygen-btsync> will generate keys (secrets) and a sample config
entry for each of the paths passed on the command line. If no paths
are supplied it uses the current directory.

The output is intended to be cut, modified and pasted into your btsync
configuration file. It will be similar to:

    // RW, normal  ASOKXDMYPKQPEOZTLQSQSIRNSJZUS6AYC
    // RO, normal  BA7K2Y6WR4NQDHBJ5DJNXCTNKMU6SDLN3
    // RW, encrypt DSOKXDMYPKQPEOZTLQSQSIRNSJZUS6AYC
    // RO, decrypt EO4VWGPVX2EZ37L275ZBOF3RTJG4OCJYOWFUKWJUDUVDA7RHT7DEFC4D5H4
    // RO, secret  FO4VWGPVX2EZ37L275ZBOF3RTJG4OCJYO
    {
      "secret"           : "ASOKXDMYPKQPEOZTLQSQSIRNSJZUS6AYC",
      "dir"              : "/home/jv/src/videotools",
      "use_relay_server" : false,
      "use_tracker"      : false,
      "use_dht"          : false,
      "search_lan"       : true,
      "use_sync_trash"   : true,
      "known_hosts"      :
      [
        "192.168.1.16:58291"
      ]
    },

The first two secrets are the normal read-write and read-only secrets.

For the meaning of the encrypted secrets, see
