On Windows you can pipe you executable with the more command
to pause after each page: your.exe | more
Don't forget that getch() is also Windows-specific.

Yeah. It is more complex than you'd think but my terminal library
can do it:
https://github.com/adamdruppe/arsd/blob/master/terminal.d
Example usage:
I don't know about Windows, but on Linux, you can just press
ctrl-s and
ctrl-q to pause/resume the console. (This is a Linux terminal
function,
not specific to D.)
In the Windows shell, the pause key will halt a program and
return will resume it.

I can peruse output statements. Ideally, I'd like to continue by
just hitting any old key. My feeble attempt below requires I
enter at least one character and then the enter key.
