You can encrypt your configuration parameters including MYAUTH stored
in a parameter file, like +="config.cdh", as described in
<URL:http://www.delegate.org/delegate/Manual.htm?EncryptedConf>

I also thought about the encryption of MYAUTH as you say, crypting it
as the MD5 password in AUTHORIZER, but I thought it should be covered
with the above generic encryption of parameters.
For example, MYAUTH=user:pass:socks MYAUTH=user:pass:http-proxy and
MYAUTH=user:pass:delegate will be able to be represented as

  SOCKS=user:pass@host:port
  PROXY=user:pass@host:port
  MASTER=user:pass@host:port

in the future release, and whatever extended parameters will be crypted
with the single scheme of the encryption of a configuration file.

Cheers,
Yutaka
