You could do it in raw DOS using the PAUSE command, and then
test for ERRORLEVEL.  However, a more elegant solution would
be to use the external utility REPLY.COM (included below) to
pause the action...and then test the ERRORLEVEL.

echo     M E N U
echo     ~~~~~~~
echo.
echo     1. This
echo     2. That
echo     3. Other
:STOPHERE
reply
if errorlevel 52 goto stophere
if errorlevel 51 goto three
if errorlevel 50 goto two
if errorlevel 49 goto one
if errorlevel 0 goto stophere
:THREE
  (do whatever)
:TWO
  (do whatever)
:ONE
  (do whatever)
