Yes I know Jacek too is my favourite...He too is awesome!!!!!

Anyway, I'm encountering another problem with readline(cost char*). It displays the correct text whatever I type but what if I want to see the text inform of '*'...ie the user enters text and but sees only '*'. Same as we prompt for password.

Example--:
Enter password: ***** The actual '*' value is 'hello'...

Will readline provide that functionality...If not what is the alternate means to do that. I know ncursers is another option but I dont know how to use it.

Waiting eagerly
