 NOTA: it can be run in multiproc mode, but in output there will be domain_cfg_00xx.nc files

+ === Closed seas (closea module) ===
+
+If you want to define closed seas in the bathymetry either to suppress them at runtime or 
+redistribute freshwater fluxes, then you need to run make_closea_masks.py after you have
+created the basic domain_cfg file. This utility will add "closea_mask*" fields to the
+domain_cfg file to define the closed seas in the configuration. (If you have closed seas
+but don't want to treat them in a special way then you can ignore this step).
