\section{\module{getpass} --- Portable password input} \declaremodule{standard}{getpass} \modulesynopsis{Portable reading of passwords and retrieval of the userid.} \moduleauthor{Piers Lauder}{piers@cs.su.oz.au} % Windows (& Mac?) support by Guido van Rossum. \sectionauthor{Fred L. Drake, Jr.}{fdrake@acm.org} The \module{getpass} module provides two functions: \begin{funcdesc}{getpass}{\optional{prompt}} Prompt the user for a password without echoing. The user is prompted using the string \var{prompt}, which defaults to \code{'Password: '}. Availability: Macintosh, \UNIX{}, Windows. \end{funcdesc} \begin{funcdesc}{getuser}{} Return the ``login name'' of the user. Availability: \UNIX{}, Windows. This function checks the environment variables \envvar{LOGNAME}, \envvar{USER}, \envvar{LNAME} and \envvar{USERNAME}, in order, and returns the value of the first one which is set to a non-empty string. If none are set, the login name from the password database is returned on systems which support the \refmodule{pwd} module, otherwise, an exception is raised. \end{funcdesc}
