It seems it does not like me:

cat pass.erl
#!/usr/bin/env escript

main(_) ->
    io:format("Password: "),
    A = io:get_password(),
    io:format("A = ~p~n", [A]).


./pass.erl:
Password: A = {error,{request,get_password}}

When it is running inside the Erlang shell, works perfectly.
What am I doing wrong?
