  # cd /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.9/gems/highline-0.6.1
  # ruby examples/password.rb
  Enter your password:  [ I entered "abcdefg" followed by a newline ]
  Your password is abcdefg!

Well, termios is now working, but that's because I had previously
manually changed the source code to get rid of the compile errors: in
"termios.c", I changed all occurences of "fptr->f" to
"fptr->stdio_file".  Is this a ruby-1.9-ism?

Also, note that I ran this _after_ having manually invoked
"ruby setup.rb" in /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.9/gems/highline-0.6.1.
I did this because the gem install of highline didn't work (see my other
message from today that's been posted to this thread).
