+&apos;&apos;&apos; SF_PythonHelper (aka Basic)
+&apos;&apos;&apos; ===============
+&apos;&apos;&apos; Singleton class implementing the &quot;ScriptForge.Basic&quot; service
+&apos;&apos;&apos; Implemented as a usual Basic module
+&apos;&apos;&apos;
+&apos;&apos;&apos; The &quot;Basic&quot; service must be called ONLY from a PYTHON script
+&apos;&apos;&apos; Service invocations: Next Python code lines are equivalent:
+&apos;&apos;&apos; bas = CreateScriptService(&apos;ScriptForge.Basic&apos;)
+&apos;&apos;&apos; bas = CreateScriptService(&apos;Basic&apos;)
+&apos;&apos;&apos;
+&apos;&apos;&apos; This service proposes a collection of methods to be executed in a Python context
+&apos;&apos;&apos; to simulate the exact behaviour of the identical Basic builtin method.
+&apos;&apos;&apos; Typical example:
+&apos;&apos;&apos; bas.MsgBox(&apos;This has to be displayed in a message box&apos;)
+&apos;&apos;&apos;
+&apos;&apos;&apos; The service includes also an agnostic &quot;Python Dispatcher&quot; function.
+&apos;&apos;&apos; It dispatches Python script requests to execute Basic services to the
+&apos;&apos;&apos; appropriate properties and methods via dynamic call techniques
+&apos;&apos;&apos;
+&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;&apos;
