That means ttermpro.exe must overwrite ARGV to hide the command line parameters? Do you tell the same suggestion to all applications in the world that accepts a password by command line parameter?

If someone can read command line parameters from running process, he already has some privirage in that PC. Doesn't he can read the password from ttl file?

command prompto> wmic process where "name = \"ttermpro.exe\"" get name,commandline

ttermpro へのオプションに指定された内容は、全部閲覧可能（/passwd=*** のパスワードも平文）ということと理解。

でも、オプション指定の内容表示は、OS側（Windows側）の仕様じゃないかな。 SSH を使うなら、/passwd を指定しないことの徹底かな。

workaround: use connect comand in two steps.

; launch Tera Term
connect '/DS'

; connect to server
connect 'server:port /auth=password /passwd="password"'

タスク一覧でパスワード(引数)が平文表示されることは私も少々気になっていました

TeraTerm Menu でパスワードでの自動ログインを使用していると、意識せずに使用してしまうと思います

PC名+ユーザ名 などをキーとした難読化(目視でぱっと覚えられないように)があるだけでも安心感は違うと思います
