The getpass function displays a prompt to the standard error output, and reads in a password from /dev/tty.
If this file is not accessible, getpass reads from the stan dard input.
Getpass turns off character echoing and disables the gen eration of signals by tty special characters (interrupt by control-C, suspend by control-Z, etc.) while reading the password.
This is implemented under the OS abstraction layer.
