‘--pwfile’ command

Hello,

Could someone tell me if the ‘--pwfile’ command can be applied to createdb.exe and psql.exe?

I found a description of ‘--pwfile’ at http://www.it-manuals.info/postgressql/app-initdb.html, which states:

--pwfile=filename

makes initdb read the database superuser's password from a file. the first line of the file is taken as the password.

I would like to disable password prompt (-W) and have the password read from a file.

Any pointers would surely be appreciated.

Thanks,

Tommy_
