Thank you all the work put into the Nupop program. I am currently using
Nupop 2.1 alpha 19.

This must be a trivial question, but I have not been able to find the
answer. How do you pass the user password to the dial.scr?

Currently my script waits for login, and I can stext "%u\r" which works
great, however, I then have to type in my password into the dial.scr.
This really does not help security. How can I pass the user's password
to the script. I first thought %p was for password, but see it is for
the port. Is there a variable for the user password?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Pat
