How do I leave a blank line?

I'm new to Lua and I don't know how to leave a blank line with nothing on when printing words onto a computer screen (for example in a list, leaving a line)…

Help would be appreciated!

Change the cursor position.

--# get current cursor position.
local x, y = term.getCursorPos()
--# set cursor position to the beginning of the line two down.
term.setCursorPos(1, y + 2)

If you need the screen to scroll, you'll have to add that in yourself. That code will move the cursor as long as it's at least two lines above the bottom of the screen.

If you're making a simple console application, doing

print("")

works as well.

I believe this even works:

print()

Yes it does Symmetryc, or at least in the base Lua it did.

I used it a lot in some basic scripts.
