  This only works in C-shell derivatives.  Type "goto <SomePassword>" and
  then enough blank lines to clear the screen.
  When you come back, type "<SomePassword>:" and RETURN.

The first thing I'd try if I saw a bunch of question marks on the screen is
Control-D.  That breaks out of your little hack, and tells me the password.
