This change also incorporates some additional getpass implementation suggestions for security based on an analysis of getpass.c linked to from the issue. ........
* Major improvements:Gregory P. Smith2008-04-221-34/+76
| | | | | | | | | * Default to using /dev/tty for the password prompt and input before falling back to sys.stdin and sys.stderr. * Use sys.stderr instead of sys.stdout. * print the 'password may be echoed' warning to stream used to display the prompt rather than always sys.stderr. * warn() with GetPassWarning when input may be echoed.
* If sys.stdin is not a tty, fall back to default_getpass after printingGregory P. Smith2008-04-211-0/+4

* Fix SF #640094, on win32 getpass runs into unix_getpassNeal Norwitz2002-11-201-1/+4
| | | | | | | | Make sure we have a UNIX-compatible termios. Apparently, McMillan Installer made a termios on windows which caused unix_getpass() to be used instead of win_getpass(). Will backport.

| | | | | | At import time, getpass will be bound to the appropriate platform-specific function. If the platform's echo-disabler is not available, default_getpass, which prints the warning, will be used

Also contains getuser(), which returns the username (not prompting though). These work on Unix and Windows!
