Shell and rsync

[Brent Anderson]

Hello.

I'm looking into a way to execute rsync on Mac OS X from Revolution  
via shell. One of the rsync targets will be a remote server. The  
problem I'm facing here is that I can't pass a password to access the  
server from rsync. Although I could use public key authentication, I  
don't want to have to worry about handling the certificates outside  
of Revolution.

In short, how does one pass a password into rsync so that Revolution  
can properly use it?

Thanks,
Brent Anderson
