How do i implement a "press a key to continue" function?

Basically, i was using

TEXT_IO.FLUSH;
TEXT_IO.GET_IMMEDIATE(TEMP_CHAR);

but this keeps finding up its own carriage returns and continuing when it 
feels like it.

This behaviour is constant for the different times i call the code, but i 
cant figure out what the problem is.

Thanks for your help,
