* Fixes issue7208 - getpass would still allow the password to be echoed onGregory P. Smith2009-10-311-3/+8
| | | | | | | | Solaris due to not flushing the input buffer. 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.

* print a warning if the password will be echoed.Jeremy Hylton1999-10-181-22/+26
| | | | | | 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

| | | | | | Windows. If sys.stdin doesn't appear to be a real file (characterized by having a working fileno()), don't use any console specific methods -- go straight to the default.
* When sys.stdin.fileno() doesn't work, fall back to default_getpass()Guido van Rossum1998-09-211-1/+4

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