+Python package \ref smesh provides an interface to create and handle

-Once a mesh has been created, it is possible to manage it via its own

+provides an interface for standard meshing algorithms included into
+the SALOME %Mesh module distribution, like:
- REGULAR (1D)
- COMPOSITE (1D)
- MEFISTO (2D)
- Quadrangle (2D)
- Hexa(3D)
