Printing a backspace?

| If I have a script that reads a password from <STDIN>. I want to not
display the character in the terminal when its being typed.
Can I print a backspace escape sequence? Or redirect STDOUT?

perldoc -q password
will give you some ideas and I only think that Term::ReadKey is part of
the standard distribution

I believe it was a subtle comment on the lack of context in your post.
He merely provided the post with a context he deemed appropriate, but
a least he had you bottom posting.
