Pure oversight :-(

Thanks :-). I'll look at reversing the OK/Cancel buttons sometime. I
just got hold of a Mac myself, so I'm working on improving these things.

Actually it never did - that option is only used by the SQL Tool. I'll
improve the documentation about that.

It stores it in .pgpass, or at least it's supposed to. It's not beyond

at one point. I'll look at this as well.
