From: Andrew Cowan Date: 2002-09-28T14:30:59+09:00 Subject: Question regarding character input I am trying to add the ability to turn echo off for character input through a socket connection, e.g. so someone connected could type a password in and not have it displayed as they type. I have seen examples of doing this using the ruby-termios extension and I tried this, using the socket as the terminal handle, it did not work. Does anyone know of a way to accomplish this? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks, Andy
