[tor-dev] obfsproxy getting scramblesuit password from file in unmanaged mode

Hey all,

when running obfsproxy with scramblesuit in unmanaged mode (e.g. to obfuscate non-Tor traffic) the UniformDH password is passed in command line like this:

obfsproxy scramblesuit --password=W3ECD5GOYU5AAW4G35GSH5QXIHSRBU2X

The problem with this is that the password is visible in the system's process list.

Do you think it would make sense to add an argument like "--password-file", so as scramblesuit can fetch the password from a file? Any caveats?

Although this is not related to the Tor ecosystem, i think it would be useful.

Cheers, Alex
