-I suppress all if key_mpp_mpi
-so it has to be compiled like mpp_mpi, even if 1 proc used 
+DOMAINcfg compiled will create "make_domain_cfg.exe" executable script
+(the main routine of this tool is make_domain_cfg.f90)
+
+DOMAINcfg tool creates a netcdf file "domain_cfg.nc" containing all the ocean domain informations required to define an ocean configuration :
+          
+    domain size
+    domain characteristics (periodic)
+    horizontal mesh
+    Coriolis parameter
+    depth and vertical scale factors
+
+VERY IMPORTANT::
+ 1. pre-required: this tool needs xios1 
+
+  ( download http://forge.ipsl.jussieu.fr/ioserver/svn/XIOS/branchs/xios-1.0 
+   DOMAINcfg tool is working with revision 703 of xios) 
+
+ 2. namelist_ref and namelist_cfg needed (here committed namelists of ORCA2_LIM)
+
+ 3. some inputs files of related configurations are needed (here committed files of ORCA2_LIM) :
+
+    coordinates.nc
+    bathy_meter.nc
+    bathy_level.nc
+    domain_def.xml 
+    field_def.xml
+    iodef.xml
+
+
+The DOMAINcfg tool can be compiled using the maketools script in the NEMOGCM/TOOLS directory as follows:
+./maketools -m $ARCH -n DOMAINcfg
+where $ARCH indicates the arch file to be used from the directory NEMOGCM/ARCH.
