Hi,

I'm enquiring as to find if anyone has re-written the getpass() function -
char *getpass(char *prompt)

for gnuwin32?

The compiler recognises it, but just says that 'it's not done.'

Could anyone suggest where I may be able to find a library or three, or 
header file that may have the same function or similar?

I basically need to otherwise write a function that prevents the 
characters being echoed to the screen - yup! Password entry system!


Thanks!

Cheers,

Rod
