"""
Gmsh is an automatic three-dimensional finite element mesh generator with a
built-in CAD engine and post-processor. Its design goal is to provide a fast,
light and user-friendly meshing tool with parametric input and flexible
visualization capabilities. Gmsh is built around four modules (geometry, mesh,
solver and post-processing), which can be controlled with the graphical user
interface, from the command line, using text files written in Gmsh's own
scripting language (.geo files), or through the C++, C, Python, Julia and
Fortran application programming interface (API).

This module defines the Gmsh Python API.
