How does one go about launching an external app for password input in those cases? Please don't take this as a criticism of your personal preference. I believe this feature would make things convenient for users who want it - those who don't, nothing changes. Even ssh (via ssh-keygen) lets you specify the passphrase at command-run time. Others include htpasswd, htdigest... -- Cheers, Ray Chuan
