Abusing security with screen
I hate typing passwords. Today’s fix: because I’m always using screen in the terminal anyway, I can create bindings in .screenrc. For example:
bind q stuff "myCleverPassword^M"
Now I just type CTRL-a q, and my password is typed for me, anywhere in a terminal. Great for ssh.
By the way, The ^M represented a carriage return.

Isn’t it better idea to use public key authentication with SSH?
