Encrypt the password so that it is not stored in plain text #2

Some sort of encryption should be done on the .twimi file. Either ccrypt
the whole file, or simply store username and pwd in some obfuscated manner
(base64 was suggested)

Fixed in version 0.3. Password is now encoded in base64. It is obfuscation more 
than
anything else but it does keep the password from sitting there in plain text.
