I didn't send a PR for this because @FiloSottile seems undecided on whether he wants to add this capability. And if it were really to be implemented, there are a few other places that should read from env var, like the decryption paths. |

Especially in a pipeline environment this makes sense to me. |

I've decided we won't provide alternative password input methods in cmd/age, but we'll ship them all in a separate plugin, like sshpass. I'll make sure to support an environment variable there, and I'll update discussion #256 when it's ready. See #256 (comment) for a bit more details. Thank you! |
