Hi,

I don't think so; and it's also not possible to buy a game with this tool.

http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-games/steamcmd.git/tree/debian/steamcmdcommands.txt
copied from here: https://github.com/dgibbs64/SteamCMD-Commands-List,
doesn't list any command to register / buy game.


Typically, users would buy the game on their Linux or even Windows desktop
with the full client and then download the game assets on an other device
(e.g. cheap ARM play-thing); that's where this tool is usefull.

Others can use it to manage servers, there's even anonymous login
support to download free-as-in-beer game servers.

Dear Alexandre,
I am/was only looking for a way to register or make an account with
steam, nothing else. But as shared on
https://github.com/dgibbs64/SteamCMD-Commands-List/blob/master/steamcmdcommands.txt
there doesn't seem to be a way to do that :(

Look forward to know more.

Well, just do:
# apt-get install steam
$ steam

and accept both debconf disclaimer
and the one shown by Steam itself;
then create a new account & you're done
