How to set password without echoing characters?
Anyone know how to set your password without having it visible in the
terminal, psql history, etc. (i.e. getpass(3))? Hoping there's a
program that already does this. Thanks.

This seems to only address authenticating with an already-set
password, and not setting the password....

Just discovered the \password psql command. Thanks.
