I'm not sure, but you don't wanna put password on the commandline anyway. If you did, some other user on the system could run `ps -aefxww` and grab your username and password. Then again, it's probably just your own system with no other user so what do I care... just saying, in principle, as a reminder to everyone not to get used to typing password on the commandline.
