The class password-pane
is a pane designed for entering passwords, such that when the password is entered it is not visible on the screen. password-pane
inherits most of its functionality from text-input-pane. It starts with the initial text and caret position specified by the arguments text and caret-position respectively, and limits the number of characters entered with the max-characters argument (which defaults to nil
, meaning there is no maximum).
The password pane can be enabled and disabled with the text-input-pane accessor text-input-pane-enabled.
overwrite-character is a base-char which is the character to display instead of the real characters. The default value of overwrite-character is #\*.
