Getkey and Getvar 11
Home page:

What Is It?
Getkey provides single-key input for batch files (shell scripts). Getvar
provides line for batch files by setting an environment variable.
I like Getkey better than Choice because it doesn't beep and it has more
features. Getvar is more feature-rich than the "Set /p" command.
Both Win32 console (recommended for NT4 and later) and DOS versions are
provided. The DOS versions are useful for batch files on DOS-based boot
media.
Getkey and Getvar are freeware.
What's New/Changed?
The timeout feature in the Win32 versions are now CPU-friendly.
The Win32 versions no longer have problems with high-bit ASCII
characters on the command line or in environment variables.
