...ent logging of sensitive information, it is not always preferable to run R with special flags. Is any solution available to prevent the logging/ display of user input. Obviously, hard-coding the sensitive information is not an option. Note: I currently use the following (summarized) convention: myloginfunction <- function(uname = readline("Enter username") , passwd = readline("Enter password")) { print(c(uname,passwd)); }; However, the readline function prints the response on-screen.
