+<h1>Working with Python Scripts</h1>\r
+\r
+<p><span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>SALOME </B></span>Platform can be launched \r
+ in the batch mode, without Graphical User Interface, and operated with \r
+ the use of Python scripts, which can fulfill most of the necessary tasks, \r
+ however, the process of scripting is quite time consuming and rather error-prone. \r
+ </p>\r
+\r
+<p>This problem has been resolved by the possibility to automatically generate \r
+ a set of Python scripts from data created with SALOME GUI, which greatly \r
+ increases the productivity of using SALOME platform in the batch mode. \r
+ This mechanism can convert a SALOMEDS Study in one or several Python scripts, \r
+ which can be stored and imported later to re-create the content of the \r
+ original study. The first script is a SALOMEDS document, which re-creates \r
+ the SALOMEDS Study, adds the stored Salome components to the SALOMEDS \r
+ and automatically calls Python scripts of the second type containing component \r
+ specific Python function calls. This architecture gives great flexibility \r
+ in manual modification of the generated scripts because you can modify \r
+ only one of the component specific Python scripts without touching others, \r
+ thus avoiding expert knowledge of Python API of unused components. </p>\r
+\r
+<p> </p>\r
+\r
+<p>To Dump a SALOME \r
+ Study in one or several scripts, in the main menu select <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>File</B></span> \r
