Boundary files, *.BND

Boundary files contain data defining 2D boundaries in the xy plane. Each boundary is characterized by some integer and real values and by a set of corners. The file contains two lists: 1) the list of  the characteristic data of all boundaries and 2) the list of all corners of all boundaries. The default boundary file is shown below. Note that there are two circular boundaries by default. A circle is a C-polygon with a single corner that corresponds to the origin of the circle.
