Pedbot will automatically load all files in that directory into memory, and you won't have to alter any other files to add your own command. Ensure that all command sub{}'s are appropriately prefixed with pedbot_command; otherwise, your command won't be found.
All commands you add need to have a description entry in the COMMANDS hash. Add a short description ($COMMANDS) of what your command does, and you're good to go. The first argument to your command will always be the screenname of the command sender, with all other arguments following after that. When writing the command, it is vital to return a string. For commands such as write, that requires message-sending functionality, utilise the global variable $aim.
If you require database access, the $dbhandle global is available for use. Familiarize yourself with Pedbot's functions, handlers, and support functions, which are in the function subdirectory. For commands exclusive to administrators, simply include the string "(admin only)" in your command description ($COMMANDS) for clarity.
