On loading the ARX/BRX/GRX/ZRX module, the following commands are added to AutoCAD
PYLOAD:
Use this command to load your python modules.

PYRELOAD:
Use this command to reload your python modules.

PYCMDPROMPT:
Provides simple access to the python interpreter

PYRXVER:
Prints the ARX module version

Autolisp:
(adspyload PATH) returns T or nil
(adspyreload PATH) returns T or nil
(adspyloaded) returns a list of loaded modules
