+37. User-registered management commands
+
+The manage.py utility provides a number of useful commands for managing a
+Django project. If you want to add a utility command of your own, you can.
+
+The user-defined command 'dance' is defined in the management/commands 
+subdirectory of this test application. It is a simple command that responds 
+with a printed message when invoked.
+
+For more details on how to define your own manage.py commands, look at the
+django.core.management.commands directory. This directory contains the
+definitions for the base Django manage.py commands.
+"""
+
+__test__ = {'API_TESTS': """
+>>> from django.core import management
+
+# Invoke a simple user-defined command
+>>> management.call_command('dance')
+I don't feel like dancing.
+
+# Invoke a command that doesn't exist
+>>> management.call_command('explode')
+Traceback (most recent call last):
+...
+CommandError: Unknown command: 'explode'
