| This is a LUA alias for a (mostly) masked input prompt. The text will be sent to the server and it will not show in the command history.
If Webdings size 4 isn't visibly obfuscated enough for you, then either 1: make the box smaller (box_height) so that the input field is not visible at all, or 2: get a password font, like this: https://github.com/davidagraf/passwd/blob/master/public/ttf/password.ttf (I am not affiliated. Beware of license trolls.)
<aliases>
<alias
match="pw"
enabled="y"
send_to="12"
sequence="100"
>
<send>pw = utils.inputbox(
"Type password:", "", "", "Webdings", 4,
{box_width=180, box_height=270}
)
pw = pw or ""
if pw ~= "" then Send(pw) end</send>
</alias>
</aliases>
