In GNUwin32 or UnxUtils, is there a way to prompt a user to "Press enter to continue" and wait for the enter key, such as the unix 'read' command. I used to have an old command 'ask' that would do something similar.

This could be done with standard windows command pause. But it waits for any key to be pressed, not only Enter.
