I haven't tested this, but..

Create a file thus:

C:> COPY CON CR.      <-- copy from the console (kbd) to file called 'CR'.
		      <-- hit Enter here, which puts a <CR> character in file
Control-Z             <-- Press Control-Z here, to terminate input

(1) file copied.
C:>

What you have done is created a 2 character file consisting of a CR and a
control-Z (end of file marker).

Now you just have to use this as stdin (standard input, which is normally the
keyboard) when you want a carriage return:

myprog.exe < CR      <-pretend MYPROG normally asks for a CR before continuing.

Note that this doesn't work with PAUSE (well, it didn't work for me, anyway).
I hope that won't be a problem as the solution for PAUSE is to remove it!

BTW, I use this technique to get around the "Are you sure? (Y/N) :" when you
try to do a DEL *.*.  I have a file that contains a Y<CR>Control-Z, and do
this:
DEL *.* <Y           <-- The file is named "Y."

which works a treat in an autoexec.bat file when you want to clear all the
temp files left over from an aborted Windows/3 session! ie.
DEL C:\windows\temp\*.* <Y
