You need to re-read the relevant page from the manual
(http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/libpq-pgpass.html). You don't
need to supply the content of the file - psql (and all other programmes based
on libpq) will look for it at a predefined place and use it if a few conditions
are met (correct permissions on the file, correct syntax, etc).
