Try "echo"<space><bs> where <space> is the space character and <BS>
is the backspace character (decimal 8) which can be entered from the
keyboard by holding the ALT key while typing 008 on the numeric pad.

I used PC Write as an editor. Hopefully your editor allows the entry 
of special characters using this method.
