Situation:
I want to get a password entry from the stdin console – without echoing what the user types. Is there something comparable to getpasswd functionality in Go?
What I tried:
I tried using syscall.Read, but it echoes what is typed.
you can do this by execing
stty -echoto turn off echo and thenstty echoafter reading in the password to turn it back on
