Wait for user to press a key

[Rogier]

When running scripts from the command line (with VisBuildCmd.exe) I would like to wait for a keypress or something in case of failure, so I can see the error before the window closes.

I tried doing this with running %DOSCMD% pause, but that doesn't work. I see "press any key to continue" but it closes immediately.

Is there a way to do this properly?
