Description Ben Boeckel 2009-12-02 01:31:21 UTC 
Description of problem:
bti echos the password to the terminal when entering it. This patch disables this so that over-the-shoulder does not happen.
Comment 1 Ben Boeckel 2009-12-02 04:07:13 UTC 
In fact, there's a new version that just got tagged with this patch in it.
