Hi, I'm trying to read in a password from the command prompt, but want to either mask the typed characters with the '*' character, or 'disconnect' the input from the screen so the characters don't appear at all, but the input is still captured.
The systems I'm using are Win32, and I'd rather not have to use any CPAN modules - I've been looking into tied filehandles, but can't work out what's required in the subroutines. Any help greatfully received. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
