READCONS(1) READCONS(1)
NAME
readcons - prompt console for input
SYNOPSIS
readcons [ -d default ] [ -s ] prompt
DESCRIPTION
Readcons prompts at the console for input, copying the typed
string to standard output. If the -s flag is given, the
input is not displayed (secret). If the user types an empty
string (just a newline) and the -d option is given, then
default is printed instead of an empty string.
