there is even more simple if you agree to display little squares instead of *
FldSetFont(GetObjectPtr(MainPasswordField), symbol11Font);
SetFieldTextFromString (GetObjectPtr(MainPasswordField),
Prefs.Password);
if you really want to display *, you have to define your own font
1) use xFONT http://members.tripod.com/pericak/ to generate the font file and a font
resource (for example NFNT 128)
2) in AppStart
MemHandle fontHandle;
FontPtr font;
fontHandle = DmGetResource('NFNT', 128 );
font = MemHandleLock ( fontHandle );
FntDefineFont ( (FontID)128, font );
MemHandleUnlock ( fontHandle );
3) use the font defined as 128
FldSetFont(GetObjectPtr(MainPasswordField), (FontID)128);
SetFieldTextFromString (GetObjectPtr(MainPasswordField),
Prefs.Password);
