   1 """Utilities to get a password and/or the current user name.
   2
   3 getpass(prompt[, stream]) - Prompt for a password, with echo turned off.
   4 getuser() - Get the user name from the environment or password database.
   5
   6 GetPassWarning - This UserWarning is issued when getpass() cannot prevent
   7                  echoing of the password contents while reading.
   8
   9 On Windows, the msvcrt module will be used.
  10 On the Mac EasyDialogs.AskPassword is used, if available.
