[Dev-C++] hidden input

[Noorez K. <coo...@ho...>]

I want to make an input for passwords so when the user types something in it 
would be hidden. And how can i fix input so that when the user types in the 
last character, my program take the password to test it?

[Dev-C++] hidden input

[Noorez K. <coo...@ho...>]

Someone gave me this explanation

Have you tried the standard character by character "cin" then the next
line would do a backspace then write a X or * over what was just put
there, so it happens so fast the password is not seen, then the function
escapes when it sees a "return or enter" character?

But it makes absolutely no sense!

While there are at least one or two other methods of entering passwords
without the password being visible - which you would find with a bit of
google work - the suggested method does make sense and does work!
