You can use the Document's SendStringToExecute() method to send an escape sequence to the command line.

doc.SendStringToExecute("\x03\x03", false, true, false); ?

// this operation will change the entities selected state

Yes, it will deselect entities. The only other option is to add a keyword to your prompt, and issue the keyword using SendStringToExecute().
