-- create a dgs edit box and define it as "editBox"
editBox = DGS:dgsCreateEdit( 0.3, 0.1, 0.4, 0.1, "", true )
-- ensure that it is masked
DGS:dgsEditSetMasked ( editBox, true )

-- set up our function to output the message to the chatbox
function checkPassword ()
        local text = DGS:dgsGetText ( editBox )     -- get the text from the edit box
        if text == password then                -- if the text matches the password
                outputChatBox ( "Password Correct!" )
        else
                outputChatBox ( "Password Incorrect!" )
