Thread: How to shadow user input (as 'su' does for example)

Thanks alot for the reply, much appreciated. Its a shame that something like this is so hard to do, I have seen many queries on the internet relating to this very same problem... would be nice if there was 1 standard solution. Well I just got up on a Saturday morning , will take a look at this later today

I had a similar problem, and the problem is ncurses. You can not, I repeat, can not use the standard I/O functions with ncurses. You'll have to do something with mvaddstr() and moveaddch().

Hope this'll help.
