Enter a (masked) password on the DOS command line
If you ever had the task on how to retrieve a password from a user on the command line, you can find the right tool here: http://westmesatech.com/editv.html. The editv tool allows you to prompt a user for whatever input, and with the -m (masked) parameter, the entered value is masked with stars. Pretty cool! Thanks, Bill!
