so, I'm doing the whole talker thing and one thing I've always found annoying about some talkers is that when you are prompted for your passwd, it echoes the letters back to the screen. I know its possible in c to just turn the echo off temporarily, that way you can type your passwd and not have everyone looking over your shoulder see it.
anyone know how to do that in perl?

thanks,
