.. note::
jp does not yet prompt for password when needed, this mean that using the ``--pwd``
option is not secure if you are not the only user of your machine: the password will
appear **IN CLEAR** in the list of launched process, or in the history of your shell.
If you are on a shared machine or if anybody can access your shell history at some

instance). This will be fixed in a future version of jp.
using the ``--pwd`` option is not secure if you are not the only user of your machine:
the password will appear **IN CLEAR** in the list of launched processes, or in the
history of your shell. If the profile password is needed and not specified, it will be
prompted (with echo disabled). If you are on a shared machine or if anybody can access
your shell history at some point, you should either connect first your profile with an
other frontend (Primitivus for instance), or avoid the ``--pwd`` option and use the
prompt instead.
