scripted/helloWorldCmd.py

########################################################################
# DESCRIPTION:
#
# Produces the Python command "spHelloWorld".
#
# This is a simple demonstration of how to use a Python plug-in.
#
# To use, make sure that helloWorldCmd.py is in your MAYA_PLUG_IN_PATH (and the
# C++ version is not), and then do the following:
#
#   import maya.cmds
#   maya.cmds.loadPlugin("helloWorldCmd.py")
#   maya.cmds.spHelloWorld()
#
# A "Hello World" text is output to the script editor window.
