Does anyone know how to put the <enter> key in Bourne Shell?

I have a utility that need to hit the enter key to get updates.  I want to run this utility in a script then hit enter every 60 sec.

Thanks for the info.  The C utility I have for an application it will prompt you to hit ENTER from standard input from the terminal to run it.  I want to know if we can put the ENTER key in a script and run it every 60 secondes. Thanks,  -Vin
