First, you can specify a password with -P (I think --password

-P doesn't specify the password - see below:

This is psql 8.2.4, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.
Usage:
psql [OPTIONS]... [DBNAME [USERNAME]]
<snip>
Output format options:
<snip>
-P VAR[=ARG] set printing option VAR to ARG (see \pset command)
<etc...>
Ah... I knew that. I always assume it does, then it doesn't work,
then I look at the man page. Sorry.
(note that --password does not either. It just forces psql to prompt
for one).
