Up to 6 walls or faces can be specified in a single command: xlo, -xhi, ylo, yhi, zlo, zhi. A lo face only reflects -particles that move to a coordinate less than the face position. A -hi face only reflects particles that move to a coordinate higher -than the face position. +xhi, ylo, yhi, zlo, zhi.

The position of each face can be specified in one of 3 ways: as the EDGE of the simulation box, as a constant value, or as a variable. If @@ -79,14 +79,13 @@ simulation box is used. If a numeric constant is specified then the wall is placed at that position in the appropriate dimension (x, y, or z). In both the EDGE and constant cases, the wall will never move.

The units keyword determines the meaning of the distance units used to define a face position, but only when a numeric constant is used.
