easier to use and in theory more portable.
use Term::ReadKey;
ReadMode('noecho');
$password = ReadLine(0);
Hope that helps...

Subject: Hide p
Hi All:
I'm trying to hide the entry on the screen of a password as it's being
entered on Windows NT. In Unix I can simply use
system "stty -echo";
but "echo off" in NT does not do the trick.
Can anyone suggest a Perl method, or an NT method please?
Thanks
