        ======
        
        A cross-platform Python module that displays **** for password input. Works on Windows, unlike getpass. Formerly called stdiomask.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        To install with pip, run:
        
            pip install pwinput
        
        Quickstart Guide
        ----------------
        
        The `getpass.getpass()` function in the Python Standard Library won't display "mask" characters as you type; it only displays nothing as you type. If you want mask characters to appear, you can use the `pwinput.pwinput()` function instead.
        
        Typical usage:
        
            >>> import pwinput
            >>> pwinput.pwinput()  # Show * for each typed character.
            Password: *********
            'swordfish'
            >>> pwinput.pwinput(prompt='PW: ')  # Show a custom prompt.
            PW: *********
            'swordfish'
            >>> pwinput.pwinput(mask='X')  # Show a different character when user types.
            Password: XXXXXXXXX
            'swordfish'
            >>> pwinput.pwinput(mask='') # Don't show anything when user types (falls back and calls getpass.getpass()).
            Password:
            'swordfish'
