To add commands in general, use @code{add_cmd}. @code{add_com} adds to
the main command list, and should be used for those commands. The usual
place to add commands is in the @code{_initialize_@var{xyz}} routines at the
ends of most source files.
place to add commands is in the @code{_initialize_@var{xyz}} routines at

Before removing commands from the command set it is a good idea to
deprecate them for some time. Use @code{deprecate_cmd} on commands or
aliases to set the deprecated flag. @code{deprecate_cmd} takes a
@code{struct cmd_list_element} as it's first argument. You can use the
return value from @code{add_com} or @code{add_cmd} to deprecate the
command immediately after it is created.
The first time a comamnd is used the user will be warned and offered a
replacement (if one exists). Note that the replacement string passed to
@code{deprecate_cmd} should be the full name of the command, i.e. the
entire string the user should type at the command line.
