Re: [PATCHES] display and expression of the home directory in Win32

Hi All.

I have thought this way and that since that time. Suggestion of Magnus-san
was considered and this was made.

I considered many things about the pgpass guide of libpq. In windows, even
the place of it was not clear. Furthermore, they are intricately concerned
with an environment variable again. Then, I thought that wanted to take into
consideration not only a position but its maintenance.

C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.1\bin>pqpasswd.exe --help
pqpasswd installs a pgpass(libpq) connect a PostgreSQL database.

Usage:
pqpasswd [OPTION]... [DBNAME]

Options:
-l, --list show a list of installed pgpass
-r, --remove remove the my pgpass
-h, --host=HOSTNAME database server host or socket directory
-p, --port=PORT database server port
-d, --dbname=DBNAME database to connect as
-U, --username=USERNAME user name to connect as
--help show this help, then exit
--version output version information, then exit

C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.1\bin>pqpasswd.exe --list
C:\Documents and Settings\saito\Application Data/postgresql/pgpass.conf
hostname=localhost port=5432 dbname=* username=postgres password=**********
hostname=* port=5432 dbname=saito username=saito password=**********
hostname=localhost port=5432 dbname=* username=z-saito password=**********
The 2th line is used.

password change can be made as follows.

C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.1\bin>pqpasswd.exe --dbname="*" --username="postgres"
New Password:
Retype New Password:
Succeeded in creation.

C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.1\bin>pqpasswd.exe -l --dbname="*" --username="postgres"
C:\Documents and Settings\saito\Application Data/postgresql/pgpass.conf
hostname=localhost port=5432 dbname=* username=postgres password=**********
hostname=* port=5432 dbname=saito username=saito password=**********
hostname=localhost port=5432 dbname=* username=z-saito password=**********
The 1th line is used.

I want the password to be enciphered in the future. However, we fully have to take the past
property into consideration. Then, I want this to be equipped as first stage.

any suggestion.?
