Description

       This  utility  displays a dialog box prompting the user for the password to a CVS repository, then writes
       the password to standard output and exits.  You should not need to run this  program  directly  -  it  is
       designed for the internal use of cvsservice(1).

       The prompt should be of the following form:

              user@host's password:

       This will allow the dialog box to display the details of the CVS repository to the user.

       This utility is part of the CVS service provided with Cervisia, which in turn is part of the KDE Software
       Development Kit.
