CONFIGURATION

If you have a .pause file in your home directory, it will be checked for a username and password. It should look like this:

user EXAMPLE
password your-secret-password

You can GnuPG-encrypt this file if you wish, but you must install Config::Identity and configure your gpg-agent as Config::Identity currently doesn't prompt for a password at decryption time:

# Follow the prompts, setting your key as the "recipient"
# Use ^D once you've finished typing out your authentication information
gpg -ea > $HOME/.pause
# OR, encrypt a file you already created:
gpg -ea $HOME/.pause && mv $HOME/.pause{.asc,}
