Special characters in connection uri causing errors

[crdiaz324]

I am trying to connect to a database that has password that begins with a semicolon. Here are the different approaches that I have tried:

1 - mermerd -c "postgresql://dbuser:;8hi3jj@192.168.111.142:5432/profiles" # plain password
2 - mermerd -c "postgresql://dbuser:%3B8hi3jj@192.168.111.142:5432/profiles" # uri encoded the semicolon
3 - mermerd -c "postgresql://dbuser:${PASSWORD}@192.168.111.142:5432/profiles" # stored the password in an env variable.

I cannot change the password on this DB, but I would very much like to be able to use this tool.

Sorry for the late response, I am quite busy currently.
The Uri encoded password should work - I will look into this as soon as I got the time.
