Description
Hello,
This is not a real issue or bug, but a question, even if I think it violates some basic security rules.
We are using chisel v1.7.6.
I'm wondering if there is a way to avoid passing a plain-text password in the chisel client command line. After starting the chisel client, anyone that list the running processes will see the command arguments and so the clear password.
I didn't find a way to hide this command or the password from users, so any help with this concern will be very helpful.
Thanks.

Determine whether a supported way exists to avoid exposing the password in process arguments; done means documenting or agreeing on a safe, maintainable approach.】【。} perplexity?
