I need to call a function or routine from Fortran that will prompt the user for a password, not echo it as it is typed, and return that password to the calling program for checking. Can anyone supply, or point me to such an example for SGI IRIX for 4D hardware, or on a MS DOS 5.0 platform? (I need to get this working on both). I had this working on VAX/VMS with system sys$qio calls coded in Fortran. I now need to port the code to DOS and IRIX now, and just be done with it. The called routine can be in Assembler, Fortran, or C, it only needs to be called from my Fortran. Thanks, John yates@a.chem.upenn.edu
