Expand description

Attempts to read a password from standard input

echo controls whether a replacement character should be printed each time the user enters a character, and if so, which character. The result is either a String or a crossterm::ErrorKind. Input begins wherever the cursor was before calling this function, which is likely to be on its own empty line.

Errors

This function can fail if the password cannot be read from standard input.
