Select nodes/Elements by location using a script?

Is it possible to select nodes/elements by location using a script? for example let's say there is a node at (100,0,0). Or an element that contains nodes 1,2,3 at locations (100,0,0) (100,1,0) (101,1,0).  I've been looking through the documentation off and on for the last couple of weeks but can't seem to sort out the TUI stuff.

Thanks,

Peter

To select a node you can use:

id_node = Mesh.FindNodeClosestTo(x, y, z)

To select elements by a point coordinates:

l_id_elements = Mesh.FindElementsByPoint(x, y, z)

You can open the file SMESH/bin/salome/smeshDC.py to browse all the smesh methods. In my opinion, it's much more convenient than browsing the online help
