thank you, I tried that too, remove the quote around the echo and it
prompt for password, as I mentioned no matter I put -P mypassword no
matter what I spell out password=mypassword still argument error
Once again -P has nothing to do with password. Also --password does not
take an argument, it is meant to be used as is. The purpose is to force
a password prompt. This is all spelled out here:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/app-psql.html
Also spelled out in above is:
" It is also convenient to have a ~/.pgpass file to avoid regularly
having to type in passwords. See Section 33.15 for more information."
And Section 33.15:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/libpq-pgpass.html
"The file .pgpass in a user's home directory can contain passwords to be
used if the connection requires a password (and no password has been
specified otherwise). ..."
Read more at link for how to do that.

all usernames are same password.
thank you so much for all input.
