* Package name : haskell-echo Version : 0.1.3 Upstream Author : Ryan Scott <ryan.gl.sc...@gmail.com> * URL : https://hackage.haskell.org/package/echo * License : BSD-3-clause Programming Lang: Haskell Description : A cross-platform, cross-console way to handle echoing terminal input The base library exposes the hGetEcho and hSetEcho functions for querying and setting echo status, but unfortunately, neither function works with MinTTY consoles on Windows. This is a serious issue, since hGetEcho and hSetEcho are often used to disable input echoing when a program prompts for a password, so many programs will reveal your password as you type it on MinTTY! . This library provides an alternative interface which works with both MinTTY and other consoles. This package is required for latest upstream version of haskell-stack. This package will be maintained under the umbrella of the Debian Haskell Group.
