I know that $STDLIST will suppress characters following a '/'.  Have you
tried fiddling with that?

We're trying to do a command file which runs in batch, and at one point
a password is entered from an :input pass;prompt="blah blah..." statement.
The password echoes on $stdlist.
 
I tried :set echo=off beforehand, and no luck.
 
I tried :input pass;prompt="blah blah...">$null, likewise no luck.
 
This seems like it should be a no-brainer but I'm coming up, umm, blank :-)
What am I missing?
