Python password display

[Johhny]

Hello,

I am currently writing some python code which requires the use of a
password. Currently I am using the raw_input function to take the users
input in and use it. One problem with that is the password is displayed
in clear text on the console of the server. I would like to work on a
way around that. Is there any built in method to do that or any
how-to's around the Internet / Advice that I could research?

Regards,

Johhny.
