in reply to Turning off local-echo from a server.

You have quite a few options here..

I would go with:

  use Term::ReadKey;
  ReadMode 2;
  chomp( my $password = ReadLine );
  ReadMode 0;

There are several nodes on this site that will lead you in the right direction, I suggest a good search on "Handling user input", or something like that.
