Example command module template
Copy this module up one level to gamesrc/commands/ and name it as
befits your use. You can then use it as a template to define your new
commands. To use them you also need to group them in a CommandSet (see
examples/cmdset.py)

Inherit from this if you want to create your own
command styles. Note that Evennia's default commands
use MuxCommand instead (next in this module)
Note that the class's __doc__ string (this text) is
used by Evennia to create the automatic help entry for
the command, so make sure to document consistently here.

self.key - the name of this command ('mycommand')
self.aliases - the aliases of this cmd ('mycmd','myc')
self.locks - lock string for this command ("cmd:all()")
self.help_category - overall category of command ("General")

self.caller - the object calling this command
self.cmdstring - the actual command name used to call this
(this allows you to know which alias was used,
for example)
self.args - the raw input; everything following self.cmdstring.
self.cmdset - the cmdset from which this command was picked. Not
often used (useful for commands like 'help' or to
list all available commands etc)
self.obj - the object on which this command was defined. It is often
the same as self.caller.

This sets up the basis for a Evennia's 'MUX-like' command
style. The idea is that most other Mux-related commands should
just inherit from this and don't have to implement parsing of
their own unless they do something particularly advanced.
A MUXCommand command understands the following possible syntax:
name[ with several words][/switch[/switch..]] arg1[,arg2,...] [[=|,] arg[,..]]
The 'name[ with several words]' part is already dealt with by the
cmdhandler at this point, and stored in self.cmdname. The rest is stored
in self.args.
The MuxCommand parser breaks self.args into its constituents and stores them
in the following variables:
self.switches = optional list of /switches (without the /)
self.raw = This is the raw argument input, including switches
self.args = This is re-defined to be everything *except* the switches
self.lhs = Everything to the left of = (lhs:'left-hand side'). If
no = is found, this is identical to self.args.
self.rhs: Everything to the right of = (rhs:'right-hand side').
If no '=' is found, this is None.
self.lhslist - self.lhs split into a list by comma
self.rhslist - list of self.rhs split into a list by comma
self.arglist = list of space-separated args (including '=' if it exists)
All args and list members are stripped of excess whitespace around the
strings, but case is preserved.
