// This application/dictionary does the following:
// - Creates new patches from boundary faces, either specified as a set of
// existing patches or as a faceSet.
// - Orders faces on coupled patches such that they are opposite. This is done
// for all coupled faces, not just for any patches created.
// - Optional: Synchronises points on coupled patches.
// - Removes any zero-sized non-coupled patches that were not added.
// Optional: Do a synchronisation of coupled points after creation of any
// patches; defaults to false. Note: this does not work with points that are on
// multiple coupled patches with transformations (i.e. cyclics).
pointSync false;
// Optional: Write cyclic matches into .obj format; defaults to false.
