summary: Command line stored in environment variable
class: wish: This is a request for an enhancement.
difficulty: fun: Just needs tuits, and not many of them.
priority: low: We aren't sure whether to fix this or not.

Perhaps PSCP (and possibly Plink and PSFTP and other potential command-line type tools) should be able to read some default command-line options from an environment variable? Note that if we did this we would also need to supply a negative form of every option, so that a user could always choose to turn off an option that the environment variable had turned on.
