I'm sorry, I'm a lazy programmer, and when I can ask
The user something and I can pose the question myself...

I'm not gonna load an extra module
#!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use Term::ReadKey; my %Prompts=( 'Step 1: Enter old password: ' => 'oldpass', 'Step 2: Enter old enable password: ' => 'oldenable', 'Step 3: Enter new password: ' => 'newpass', 'Step 4: Confirm new password: ' => 'passconf', 'Step 5: Enter new enable password : ' => 'newenable', 'Step 6: Confirm new enable password: ' => 'enableconf'); my $Key; my %Passwd; foreach my $Prompt (sort keys %Prompts) { print "$Prompt"; ReadMode('noecho'); chomp($Passwd{$Prompt} = <STDIN>); ReadMode(0); };

I hope this wont cost me XP... ;))
