 class MessageDialog:
     """
     A customizable message dialog window using tkinter for user interaction.
-
-    This class creates modal dialogs for displaying information, warnings, errors,
-    or questions to the user. It supports multiple button configurations, custom
-    icons, keyboard navigation, and command binding. The dialog is centered on the
-    screen and handles user interactions with focus management and accessibility.
-
-    Attributes:
-        message_type (str): Type of message ("info", "error", "warning", "ask").
-        text (str): Main message content to display.
-        buttons (List[str]): List of button labels (e.g., ["OK", "Cancel"]).
-        result (bool or None):
-            - True for positive actions (Yes, OK)
-            - False for negative actions (No, Cancel)
-            - None if "Cancel" was clicked with ≥3 buttons
-        icons: Dictionary mapping message types to tkinter.PhotoImage objects
-
-    Parameters:
-        message_type: Type of message dialog (default: "info")
-        text: Message content to display
-        buttons: List of button labels (default: ["OK"])
-        master: Parent tkinter window (optional)
-        commands: List of callables for each button (default: [None])
-        icon: Custom icon path (overrides default icons if provided)
-        title: Window title (default: derived from message_type)
-        font: Font tuple for text styling
-        wraplength: Text wrapping width in pixels
-
-    Methods:
-        _get_title(): Returns the default window title based on message type.
-        _on_button_click(button_text): Sets result and closes the dialog.
-        show(): Displays the dialog and waits for user response.
-
-    Example Usage:
-
-    1. Basic Info Dialog:
-    >>> MessageDialog(
-    ...     text="This is an information message.")
-    >>> result = dialog.show()
-    >>> print("User clicked OK:", result)
-
-    Notes:
-        My Favorite Example,
-        for simply information message:
-
-    >>> MessageDialog(text="This is an information message.")
-    >>> result = MessageDialog(text="This is an information message.").show()
-
-    Example Usage:
-
-    2. Error Dialog with Custom Command:
-    >>> def on_retry():
-    ...     print("User selected Retry")
-
-    >>> dialog = MessageDialog(
-    ...     message_type="error",
-    ...     text="An error occurred during processing.",
-    ...     buttons=["Retry", "Cancel"],
-    ...     commands=[on_retry, None],
-    ...     title="Critical Error"
-    ... )
-    >>> result = dialog.show()
-    >>> print("User selected Retry:", result)
-
-    Example Usage:
-
-    3. And a special example for a "open link" button:
-    Be careful not to forget to import it into the script in which
-    this dialog is used!!! import webbrowser from functools import partial
-
-    >>> MessageDialog(
-    ...     "info"
-    ...     text="This is an information message.",
-    ...     buttons=["Yes", "Go to Exapmle"],
-    ...     commands=[
-    ...         None,  # Default on "OK"
-    ...         partial(webbrowser.open, "https://exapmle.com"),
-    ...    ],
-    ...     icon="/pathh/to/custom/icon.png",
-    ...     title="Example",
-    ... )
-
-    Notes:
-        - Returns None if "Cancel" was clicked with ≥3 buttons
-        - Supports keyboard navigation (Left/Right arrows and Enter)
-        - Dialog automatically centers on screen
-        - Result is False for window close (X) with 2 buttons
-        - Font and wraplength parameters enable text styling
