I have a Win32 (non-GUI) program which requires the user
to type in their password but, for obvious reasons, I
don't want it to appear on the screen/DOS window as
they type.

Does anyone have an Ada binding to a routine similar in
effect to 'ECHO OFF' that I could call before the
'Get_Line'? or, something similar to redirecting the
standard output to a UNIX null device.

I've exhausted my search engine enough on this! :-)

Thanks in advance...
