# Last steps
# Wow, you made your own module for the inkycal project! Amazing :D
# To make sure this module can be used with inkycal, you need to register it with inkycal

# If not there already, copy your module to Inkycal/inkycal/modules
# Copy the full path of your module (e.g. right click->copy path), it should look like: /home/pi/Inkycal/inkycal/modules/mymodule.py or similar

# then open a python console and run:
# import Inkycal
# Inkycal.add_module('full/path/to/your/new/module.py')

# To remove your module, run the following in a python console:
# import Inkycal
# Inkycal.remove_module('filename.py') # Only the filename, e.g. 'mymodule.py' is required.

# How do I now import my module?
# from inkycal.modules import Class
# Where Class is the name of the class inside your module (e.g. Simple)
