If the user types the password on the command line, it can show up in ps(1).

There should be an additional option (lets say -P) that will prompt the user to input a password at a prompt.

i.e.

# ipmi-sensors -h foohost -u foouser -P
Enter Password: <user types in password>

This is needed before the 0.3.0 release.
