Sure, it would be os.system('as_run ***').
Trivial, right?
Far easier than authoring a .export file ;')
Btw, the working you show in the exporter is _awesome_! Its much more like the
Code_Saturn wizard, which I think is much better engineerd than ASTK.
Pierre, it would be great to have a pythonocc-code-aster project.
We simply have to distinct between "core pythonocc" and contributed projects.
Again, I think the mariage between pythonOCC & Code_Aster is something really
really important!

In Salome terminology, its would be GroupOnGeom ( adding groups to Brep
topology ), and methods for adding / subtracting groups.
Those groups than can be used in the .comm simulation specification.
f1,f2,f3,f4,f5,f6 = Topo(box).faces()
smesh_mesh.GroupOnGeom(f1,'load')
smesh_mesh.GroupOnGeom(f4,'fixate')
So, its just defining and naming a group. That's all.

Did I do so?

Thanks for _your_ help Pierre!!
