{
    IntPtr Address = LavishVM.GetAPI("Inner Space", "Echo", 1);
    if (Address.ToInt32() == 0)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(Output);
        return;
    }
    InnerSpace.Echo = (InnerSpaceAPI.Delegates.Echo)Marshal.GetDelegateForFunctionPointer(Address, typeof(InnerSpaceAPI.Delegates.Echo));
    InnerSpace.Echo(Output);
}
