[Gnu-arch-users] More https updates

[Aleix Conchillo Flaque]

Hi,

More things regarding https support (with gnutls).

When web servers required basic authentication, that is username and password,
these could be given as part of the URI. This is not very nice as one
can see the password with just a `tla archives`. Now, a username and
password are asked when needed. This change affects http as well (if
http has basic authentication).

You can find the patches here:

Archive-URI: http://tao.uab.es/aleix/archives/2004
Version: tla--aleix--1.2

Btw, by now I'm using gets() to read the password (you'll see the
password while typing). Is there any function in hackerlab or in
another library to read passwords properly?

regards,

aleix
