The error was:
Warning: Problem with getpass. Passwords may be echoed.
My code is:
#This is for a password protected program to store passwords.
import getpass
password = "hello"
sitelist = {}
def main_menu():
print "1) Add a login info card"
print "2) Lookup a login info card"
print "3) Remove a login info card"
print "4) Print Login info list"
print "9) Exit"
def add_site():
print "Add a login info card"
site = raw_input("Site: ")
id = raw_input("User ID: ")
passcard = getpass.getpass("Password: ")
sitelist[site] = [id,passcard]
def lookup_site():
print "Lookup a login info card"
site = raw_input("Site: ")
if sitelist.has_key(site):
print "The ID is: ",sitlist[site][0]
print "The password is: ",sitelist[site][1]
else:
print site," was not found."
def remove_site():
print "Remove a login info card"
site = raw_input("Site: ")
if sitelist.has_key(site):
del sitelist[site]
else:
print site," was not found."
def print_login_info():
print "Login Info"
for x in sitelist.keys():
print "Site: ",x," \tID: ",sitelist[x][0]," \tPassword:
",sitelist[x][1],"\n"
print "The Password Program"
print "By Nathan Pinno"
print
answer = getpass.getpass("What is the password? ")
while password != answer:
print "The password is incorrect."
answer = getpass.getpass("What is the password? ")
print "Welcome to the second half of the program."
while 1:
main_menu()
menu_choice = int(raw_input("Choose an option: "))
if menu_choice == 1:
add_site()
elif menu_choice == 2:
lookup_site()
elif menu_choice == 3:
remove_site()
elif menu_choice == 4:
print_login_info()
elif menu_choice == 9:
break
else:
print "That's not an option!"
print "Have a nice day!"
Thanks for the help!
