+This is an example command module for showing the pluggable command system
+in action. 
+
+You'll need to make sure that this or any new modules you create are added to
+game/settings.py under CUSTOM_COMMAND_MODULES or CUSTOM_UNLOGGED_COMMAND_MODULES,
+which are tuples of module import path strings. See src/config_defaults.py for more details.
+
+E.g. to add this example command for testing, your entry in game/settings.py would
+look like this:
+
+CUSTOM_COMMAND_MODULES = ('game.gamesrc.commands.examples.example',)
+
+(note the extra comma at the end to make this into a Python tuple. It's only
+needed if you have only one entry.) You need to restart the Evennia server before new
+files are recognized.
