- Subject: How can I get mintty to not display my password?
When using cmd.exe, when I am prompted for a password, no characters are
displayed, but the password gets entered. However, when I use mintty, the
characters I type at the password prompt are displayed. TERM=xterm. How
can I stop this from happening?
In cmd.exe:
