You don't need to download the whole chain to do that.
You need the cli_wallet.
In the comment section of my post, you can find an easy method.
You need 4 keys to create an account.
The command you are looking for is: create_account_with_keys
create_account will create an account with the keys stored in your wallet.
ah, great. thank you. cli_wallet would have been the keyword to google for. :)
without the docker image it's a pain to compile it though.
Yeah, I just began to read. I guess I will try this next weekend. :)
