Passive boundary conditions

First an example. Notice the diagonal channels marked with u and v  as well as the twelve types of land
boundaries represented by neat MS-DOS line-drawing characters.

From left to right:

Inland (the stippled symbol)	u=v=0, zeta=0	0
East-coast	u+v=0, values to the east	10
North-coast	u-v=0, values to the north	20
West-coast	u+v=0, ...	30
South-coast	u-v=0, ...	40
NE-cape (sea to the NE)	v=0, values to the NE	50
NW-cape	u=0, values to the NW	60
SW-cape	v=0, ...	70
SE-cape	u=0, ...	80
SE-bay (sea to the SE)	u=v=0	90
NE-bay	u=v=0	100
NW-bay	u=v=0	110
SW-bay	u=v=0	120
u  - sea connected (narrow passage open for SE-currents)	v=0	130
v  - sea connected  (narrow passage open for NE-currents)	u=0	140
/ - land connected SW-NE  (two bays (NW and SE)         back-to-back)	u=v=0	150
\ - land connected NW-SE  (two bays (SW and NE)         back-to-back)	u=v=0	160

The second column indicates the conditions for forming the special types of equations for
the currents. The third column shows the state number (0) or the boundary condition number
(greater or equal 10)

There are flags carrying other meanings.
