How to pause a for loop until the enter key is pressed?

For example, say I want to print the numbers from 1 to 10. I want it to wait until the enter key is pressed to print the next number.

 Accepted Answer

Use the pause command.
for ind = 1:10,
pause;
disp(ind);
end
In the command window, you will need to press any key to continue each time "pause" is reached.
Alternatively, you can use the input command which will be enter-key specific. Just replace pause with input('').
