This is, by default, stored in my typing history, and becomes visible with view-lossage. Is there some way to prevent passwords from being recorded in typing history, so that if I run view-lossage (usually accidentally), my password won't show up on screen? I've looked around on the web a bit, but didn't find anything that addresses this. Thanks for any tips, Mandar.
