If you mean outputting *s when inputting passwords, I have written something like that in C++

I might do the same in C smile.gif

If you're just looking for general information on the subject, perhaps you could check out wikipedia or google for more general information. When you have a bit more of a idea of what in particular and show a bit of effort we will certainly help in any way we can.

You can use getpass() to ask for a password without an echo.
Include conio.h for Windows and unistd.h for *NIX systems.

getpass() is portable, but it is considered a legacy function.
If possible, you are encouraged to write your own function according to your situation.
