I often use an org file to record database queries, using sql

I've been putting the database credentials in the file using

separate file for
security reasons.
Any ideas on how I could make this work?
It probably wouldn't be too hard to use the authinfo.gpg
facility via
the auth-source library which is included in Emacs. In fact, I
think
sql-mode might already have support for this built in.
Thanks for the suggestion. I didn't see it on worg, but in
ob-sql.el I found
support for ":dbconnection". I can set up an entry in
sql-connection-alist, and
give the name of the entry to the sql block via :dbconnection.
Now, my password
is safely out of the .org file. As a bonus, it is easier to
maintain across
different org files.
The Worg entry should be fixed now. Thanks for the report.
All the best,
Tom
