I understand your position, but I think we should have just one PASS flag, not two. My preferred option would be to have a single flag, -k, which takes no argument, and require that passwords be read from stdin. On a somewhat related note, it seems strange that both ii and sic have default hosts which are actually different. In my opinion the -h flag should be made mandatory, with no default host. Thanks, cls
