common_bound: 0 - Boundaries between components within the selection are flagged.; 1 - Only the boundary of the entire selection is flagged (comps are treated as a single set).
free_edges: 0 - Free edges are not marked for preservation.; 1 - Free edges are marked for preservation.

Mark the boundaries of components 100 and 101, flagging only the boundary of the entire selection:

*createmark comps "by id only" 100 101
*bm_markpreservedcompsboundary 1 1 0
