One possible way is to use a QInputDialog via the PyQt bindings, but this requires an instance of QApplication (and thus an event loop). There is probably also a GTK equivalent. Another way is to use zenity http://library.gnome.org/users/zenity/stable/. It seems that the PyZenity module is not available for Maemo5, but you can use zenity via the os.system() method, e.g

Code:
import os
credentials = os.system('zenity --password --username').split('|')
if len(credentials) >= 2:
username = credentials[0].strip()
password = credentials[1].strip() // remove leading/trailing whitespace
else:
print "Problem with username/password"

i use a Python script to login to my providers Hotspots. (without a visit of the providers webpage and enter data manually) But the script needs username and pw, sure. So, I think it's unsafe to safe both in the script. (everbody who get the phone can read them). I could implement a call to enter the pw, but I use the Command Execution Widget to exucute the script and have no idea to create soemthing like a popup window to enter the pw.
Did anybody deal with this safety problem in scripts?
