Are you sure you looked at the code? It basically lets you setup either an alias or an array variable in localprefs.js and pass those in either using the alias name or the variable name. Here's an example of my localprefs.js file: '// ======================================================== //yy.xml yyid = Array( "username", "password" ); var yyg = Array( "myyahooid", "whatever", "http://groups.yahoo.com/mygroups" ); var yyy = Array( "myyahooid", "whatever" ); var ybc = Array( "[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "whatever" ); var yyid = ybc; '// ======================================================== Now if I type into dqsd ONLY: yy ...it will log me in using my "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" YahooID and take me to the 'default' Yahoo page (My Yahoo!). If I use: yy yyg ...I get logged into my "myyahooid" ID and bounce to the MyGroups page on YahooGroups. And I also have an alias setup in localaliases.txt that looks like this: yg|yy yyg Which logs me in using the YahooGroups "MyGroups" config the same as if I had typed out the "yy yyg" trigger. None of these would display the password in DQSD, the DQSD history, or anywhere else BUT they do have the password stored in clear text in the install directory in the localprefs.js file. This could be minimized by encryption, but could not be eliminated unless you resorted to using a third-party service to store your passwords, since the password itself must be decryptable in order to submit it to those remote sites requiring the actual password.
