To use the latest version, include the following in your build.sbt:

libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
  "dev.hnaderi" %%% "readpassword" % "<see badge>"
)

Then use it like:

import dev.hnaderi.readpassword

object Main extends App {
  val pass = readpassword.read("Enter your password: ")
  println(s"Your password is: $pass")
}

Your password is: This is my password!
