*       SMSCommand is associated with a Parser and parser is attached to 
certain Programs (with/without registration).

       1. Create SMSCommand
       2. Edit SMSCommand
       3. Set response messages to be sent to the originating user.
       4. Set codes for data elements ( for example age, height, 
orgunit etc )

*  When text is longer then one SMS(160 characters) then it will be sent 
as multiple SMSes each having <= 160 characters. *
