Hi there!!

I have just discovered sitecopy/xsitecopy, and I like it a lot!!

But I have a problem with the security: sitecopy writes the passwords in
raw text. I think that it is a big problem, as if you use the .sitecopy
as in the .netrc. 

If I want to specify the password in command-line, I have the same
problem: it is written in my .bash_history.

I think it is easy to implement a way to ask for password, so the
password will be written nowhere (maybe an option "askpassword").

Before to send this mail, I have been looking for other options in the
archives and documentation and I have found nothing. Maybe my english is
not good enougth to find a solution already implemented.

What do you think about? Have I explained myself?

Thank you!!!
