+
+The \module{getpass} module provides two functions:
+
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{getpass}{\optional{prompt\optional{, stream}}}
+  Prompt the user for a password without echoing.  The user is
+  prompted using the string \var{prompt}, which defaults to
+  \code{'Password: '}. On \UNIX, the prompt is written to the
+  file-like object \var{stream}, which defaults to
+  \code{sys.stdout} (this argument is ignored on Windows).
+
+  Availability: Macintosh, \UNIX, Windows.
+  \versionchanged[The \var{stream} parameter was added]{2.5}
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{getuser}{}
+  Return the ``login name'' of the user.
+  Availability: \UNIX, Windows.
+
+  This function checks the environment variables \envvar{LOGNAME},
+  \envvar{USER}, \envvar{LNAME} and \envvar{USERNAME}, in order, and
+  returns the value of the first one which is set to a non-empty
+  string.  If none are set, the login name from the password database
+  is returned on systems which support the \refmodule{pwd} module,
+  otherwise, an exception is raised.
+\end{funcdesc}
