        This is a boring but working example of an actual Hooke command.
        A Hooke command is a function of the xxxxCommands class, which is ALWAYS defined
        this way:

        def do_nameofcommand(self,args)

        *do_            is needed to make Hooke understand this function is a command
        *nameofcommand  is how the command will be called in the Hooke command line.
        *self           is, well, self
        *args           is ALWAYS needed (otherwise Hooke will crash executing the command). We will see
                        later what args is.

        Note that if you now start Hooke with this plugin activated and you type in the Hooke command
        line "help nothing" you will see this very text as output. So the help of a command is a
        string comment below the function definition, like this one.

        Commands usually return None.

        1. THE RAW, CURRENT PLOTS

        self.current
        ---
        Contains the current libhookecurve.HookeCurve container object.
        A HookeCurve object defines only two default attributes:

        * self.current.path = string
        The path of the current displayed curve

        * self.current.curve = libhookecurve.Driver
        The curve object. This is not only generated by the driver,
        this IS a driver instance in itself.
        This means that in self.current.curve you can access the
        specific driver APIs, if you know them.

        And defines only one method:
        * self.current.identify()
        Fills in the self.current.curve object.
        See in the cycling tutorial.

        *****
        The REAL curve data actually lives in:
        ---
        * self.current.curve.default_plots() = [ libhooke.PlotObject ]
        Contains the raw PlotObject-s, as "spitted out" by the driver, without any
        intervention.
        This is as close to the raw data as Hooke gets.

        One or two plots can be spit out; they are always enclosed in a list.
        *****

        Methods of self.current.curve are:
        ---

        * self.current.curve.is_me()
        (Used by identify() only.)

        * self.current.curve.close_all()
        Closes all driver open files; see the cycling tutorial.

        2. THE PROCESSED, DEFAULT PLOT

        The plot that is spitted out by the driver is *not* the usual default plot
        that is displayed by calling "plot" at the Hooke prompt.

        This is because the raw, driver-generated plot is usually *processed* by so called
        *plot processing* functions. We will see in the tutorial how to define
        them.

        For example, in force spectroscopy force curves, raw data are automatically corrected
        for deflection. Other data can be, say, filtered by default.

        The default plots are accessible in
        self.plots = [ libhooke.PlotObject ]

        self.plots[0] is usually the topmost plot
        self.plots[1] is usually the bottom plot (if present)

        3. THE PLOT DISPLAYED RIGHT NOW.

        Sometimes the plots you are displaying *right now* is different from the previous
        two. You may have a fit trace, you may have issued some command that spits out
        a custom plot and you want to rework that, whatever.

        You can obtain in any moment the plot currently displayed by Hooke by issuing

        PlotObject = self._get_displayed_plot(dest)

        This function defines a PLOT MANIPULATOR.
        A plot manipulator is a function that takes a plot in input, does something to the plot
        and returns the modified plot in output.
        The function, once plugged, gets automatically called everytime self.plots is updated

        For example, in force spectroscopy force curves, raw data are automatically corrected
        for deflection. Other data can be, say, filtered by default.

        To create and activate a plot manipulator you have to:
            * Write a function (like this) which name starts with "plotmanip_" (just like commands
              start with "do_")
            * The function must support four arguments:
              self : (as usual)
              plot : a plot object
              current : (usually not used, deprecated)
              customvalue=None : a variable containing custom value(s) you need for your plot manipulators.
            * The function must return a plot object.
            * Add an entry in hooke.conf: if your function is "plotmanip_something" you will have
              to add <something/> in the plotmanips section: example

            <plotmanips>
                <detriggerize/>
                <correct/>
                <median/>
                <something/>
            </plotmanips>

            Important: Plot manipulators are *in pipe*: each plot manipulator output becomes the input of the next one.
            The order in hooke.conf *is the order* in which plot manipulators are connected, so in the example above
            we have:
            self.current.curve.default_plots() --> detriggerize --> correct --> median --> something --> self.plots
