[issue1703] getpass broken in Py3k: must flush()

2007-12-27 Thread Philip Jenvey
New submission from Philip Jenvey: getpass (in particular _raw_input, used by unix_getpass and default_getpass) prints out a password prompt to a stream (by default stdout) but doesn't flush that stream. It assumes calling sys.stdin.readline() to read the password causes stdout to be flushed
