Matanya Stroh <matanya.st...@gmail.com> added the comment:

for getpass.win_getpass() it can simply be done by adding this line
msvcrt.putch("*").
So the code will look like:

def win_getpass(prompt='Password: ', stream=None):
    """Prompt for password with echo off, using Windows getch()."""
    if sys.stdin is not sys.__stdin__:
        return fallback_getpass(prompt, stream)

    for c in prompt:
        msvcrt.putwch(c)
    pw = ""
    while 1:
        c = msvcrt.getwch()
        if c == '\r' or c == '\n':
            break
        if c == '\003':
            raise KeyboardInterrupt
        if c == '\b':
            pw = pw[:-1]
        else:
            pw = pw + c
            msvcrt.putch("*") #Line that was added
    msvcrt.putwch('\r')
    msvcrt.putwch('\n')
    return pw
