Overview

About
Maintained by Drew SchmidtFirst published 2016-02-255 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

A micro-package for reading "passwords", i.e. reading user input with masking, so that the input is not displayed as it is typed. Currently we have support for 'RStudio', the command line (every OS), and any platform where 'tcltk' is present.
