Echoing an empty line

I'm running KoLmafia from the command line, and during the script execution I'd like to print some empty lines.
Code: 
cli_execute("echo");
cli_execute("echo ");
cli_execute("echo.");
cli_execute("echo .");
Either of this won't work or won't produce what I want. Is there any other way?

Edit2: Well it detects a ";" and makes it a new command so its not just ignoring the text after the "/" but just not displaying it? (So a
Code:

Code:
