Persistent problem with -p option for cups and uups
Don Nelson
Hi all,
Using the latest version of cf (6.17.0+5d0be0a-2016-04-15), I notice that there is still a problem with the -p option for cups and uups. The online help indicates that one can use -p to point to a JSON file with credentials. Some of the docs also indicate this. However, cf takes the path to the file as a prompt and wants input.
Perhaps this is just a synchronization problem with the docs, and it's not really supposed to work this way. Personally, I would vote for a -f option to point to a file, since IMHO having the credentials in a secure and potentially versionalbe file would be more secure and repeatable than entering it on the CL.
