Or do you have an idea how you would programmatically determine whether input was not echoed due to password, game, or just so that the app can do some pre-processing before displaying the glyph?
- samat 8y agoIt’s funny that regarding this comics content, checking if you have a bird on the photo is like one repository away, nowhere that 5 years and a research team mentioned.
- lostgame 8y agoOh, I at least simply mean on text fields that are formatted, e.g. in CSS, to be password-type fields. It may even be possible to write a hook into the Terminal client, so, e.g. when the user is asked for sudo permissions, it temporarily disables the glow on the keyboard. I'm talking about basic solutions that may not cover all the angles, but can cover the most common points. But heck, it's open-sourced, so I know I could implement something like that myself if I wanted to, so I'll shut up. :P
