>From the man page:
”u1sdtool is a command line utility for controlling ubuntuone-syncdaemon.
It can be used to get information about the metadata of ubuntuone-syncdae‐
mon but also to create shares, accept or reject offered shares and to force
a refresh on the list of shares.”

Personally I use it to get a file's UbuntuOne URL, for instance:
export URL=$(u1sdtool --publish-file "${File}" | sed -r 's/.*(http.*)/\1/')
