Hi! I am trying to make a batch script that will ask the user either to press enter or escape ( those are the only two available keys) doesnt matter what happens after that part I figured out. The issue is making the script stop and listen for either a carriage return or escape that I have a hard time wrapping my head around. Can this be done with batch command? IF yes then how? Thanks

See again your original thread in the XP Forum for any details about how to do and related explanations.

I want just to point out that handling those keys is not usual in batch scripts and requires tricky practices. Using Debug to generate assembly support code is one of those tricks, but higly unusual.
