Subject: Password prompt for download.file from linux

Is there any way to be prompted for a password when using a proxy server
to down load files to linux.  The only approach I have seen in the
documentation involves putting a clear text password into an environment
variable, which would get me into trouble.
Thanks for the help,
George Williams
