3. Information about the ghc-echo package on openSuSE Tumbleweed

Information for package ghc-echo:
---------------------------------
Repository : openSUSE-Tumbleweed-Oss
Name : ghc-echo
Version : 0.1.4-2.6
Arch : x86_64
Vendor : openSUSE
Installed Size : 49.0 KiB
Installed : No
Status : not installed
Source package : ghc-echo-0.1.4-2.6.src
Upstream URL : https://hackage.haskell.org/package/echo
Summary : A cross-platform, cross-console way to handle echoing terminal input
Description :
The 'base' library exposes the 'hGetEcho' and 'hSetEcho' functions for querying
and setting echo status, but unfortunately, neither function works with MinTTY
consoles on Windows. This is a serious issue, since 'hGetEcho' and 'hSetEcho'
are often used to disable input echoing when a program prompts for a password,
so many programs will reveal your password as you type it on MinTTY!
This library provides an alternative interface which works with both MinTTY and
other consoles. An example is included which demonstrates how one might prompt
for a password using this library. To build it, make sure to configure with the
'-fexample' flag.
