Enter password: hello_world

Your password is: hello_world
End of myscript.sh
$
$ # now put the password in a file, say "mypasswd.txt"
$ cat -n mypasswd.txt
     1  hello_world

$ # and call myscript.sh, redirecting the password from mypasswd.txt
$ ./myscript.sh < mypasswd.txt
Printing from myscript.sh
Enter password:
Your password is: hello_world
