I would like to add capability to initdb to accept the password for the superuser account at invocation. Right now, I can use --pwprompt or -W to have it ask for a password. But for the win32 GUI installed I'd like to ask for the password in the installer, and pass it to initdb.
Considering how it's done in different places, what's the preferred way to do this? Commandline parameter? Environment variable? Other (what would that be?) //Magnus ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
