+NAME
+     new_model - create model stub files
+
+SYNOPSIS
+     new_model ModelName
+
+DESCRIPTION
+     The new_model generator takes a model name (in CamelCase) and generates
+     a new, empty model in app/models, a test suite in test/unit with one
+     failing test case, and a fixtures directory in test/fixtures.
+
+EXAMPLE
+     new_model Account
+
+     This will generate an Account class in app/models/account.rb, an
+     AccountTest in test/unit/account_test.rb, and the directory
+     test/fixtures/account.
