Suggestion: ask: `--password` should use `read --silent` with a confirm password prompt

Open balupton opened this issue 2 months ago • 2 comments

Currently if one uses ask --password it just prevents it from being outputted after being entered, however read (at least on macos) supports --silent which obfuscates what is entered with dots.... If Dorothy were to change ask to use this mode, then ask will need to verify the characters were entered with an additional confirm prompt. This may be a few days of work, which currently has no requirement in Dorothy currently. If someone needs this, post below.
