bash command to require key press

INCSlayer · 2009-03-04 20:10:13

i am trying to remember what command one should use so it closes the script when i press a key.
This is for a small script that would allow to open xterm run makepkg but not close the terminal
i know of the -hold command in xterm but i would prefer to use a keypress

Use "read".
