General Software Discussion / Re: Does this exist and if not can someone write it up?

Hi questorfla,
I have faced the same situations and wanted the same things. Many a site and also some software (aka folder lock etc.) require password with capital, number and special characters which makes entering them complicated behind asterisks.
I have been locked out in two/three situation, although I can swear that I was correct still I was left swearing against the site.
I found one solution and created another one.
1. I use JC&MB Quicknote http://www.quicknote.de/quicknoteen.php and enable "Focusless input". After that when I type in the password box the letters are auto typed in the quicknote box, which I can see and confirm if it is correct or not.
2. I type the password in a new notepad window. Copy it and use Paste Text Like https://sites.google.com/site/pastetextlike/ to "Mimic Typing" on the password box, since these password box do not allow copy-paste. Then I close the notepad window without saving.
I now use the point 1 above when I am creating a new account and need to enter a new password. And the point 2 when I am entering the password in a website.
See if they can be of any help.
Regards,
Anand
