Extend `prompt` to hide input #73

Open iilyak opened 6 years ago

It doesn't seem to be away to disable echo in alfred's prompt feature. It always prints the entered data back to terminal. Which makes it not secure to use for things like password.

So this is a bit more involved, not sure when I can get to this, but we'll keep it open because I think it's a legit feature.

Having said that, you can echo the question(password), disable the tty, and then enable tty and continue on it's own individual task until this feature is created.
