psql and lipq can exploit .pgpass for exactly that aim: not messing
around with passwords.
Again, I would discourage you to fork psql. Would you be able to
maintain the new upcoming versions in the future?
The OP seems to be used the term fork in a process sense, not forking the source code. Process execution from within another program. “Launch” or “execute” psql would be a better choice of wording here.
