--- Comment #18 from Robin Sheat <robin at catalyst.net.nz> ---
My issue is that the pausing thing means it can't be used within a script.

It shouldn't say "password for x is y", it should just output the password, and
it should only block if it's outputting to a terminal, otherwise it'll block
forever.

A test for this is here:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/911168/how-to-detect-if-my-shell-script-is-running-through-a-pipe

running koha-passwd instance | cat should output the password and then finish
without issuing a clear or anything. This makes it easy for people who need the
password as part of some other shell script.

Additionally, it'd probably be good (although I wouldn't consider it a blocker)
to make a function in koha-functions.sh to fetch the password and use that,
that way other scripts in the koha-* set can use that (if you're really keen
you can change them to use it, but certainly don't consider than necessary.)
