In the early days of my program that is exactly what I did. I decided 
though that I wanted to pass the password (from a protected file) 
because I hope that the program will be used by others. For that reason 
I thought that asking people to add 'NOPASSWD' was too insecure.

Thanks though, it was kind of you to reply!
