getPass

Description

A micro-package for reading "passwords", i.e. reading user input with masking. The package's only exported function, getPass(), behaves similarly to R's own readline(), only the user text is not printed as it is typed. Currently we have support for RStudio, the command line (every OS), and any platform where tcltk is present.
