Hello David,
I think so, the parameter you need in psql command is -w mipassword.

Sorry, this is not correct. -w causes psql *never* to prompt for a password, and -W forces a password prompt. Neither allows the password to be passed as an argument - I don't think that this is possible with psql.


You're right, that's not possible (as an argument). And it is a security *feature*.
