Abaqus - Python Interface Bug Fix Request

The checkGeometry() method in Abaqus 2023's Python interface is designed very poorly.

When checkGeometry() is called, it (as far as I can tell) prints information to some hidden file object that Abaqus dumps to the Message Area of the GUI. In my Python script, I want to retrieve the information that checkGeometry() generates and use it to make decisions about what to do next. However, there is no way to currently do this. 

I would suggest having checkGeometry() print to stdout so that folks like me can redirect stdout before calling checkGeometry() and retrieve the information. Better yet, have checkGeometry() return something!

Hopefully someone who works on Abaqus' Python Interface sees this.
