The output parameter prompts define how attractor basins are displayed, and also various analytical settings, printing and/or saving data, and mutation settings. The prompts are skipped by entering ``s'' to run space-time patterns forward only (if a basin of attraction field was not selected), or by entering ``d'' to accept defaults. Entering ``d`` can be done at any stage to accept remaining defaults and skip remaining options. Once set, new values generally become the output parameter defaults, but can be reset to the original values. All the output parameter options may be looked at in turn, but they are divided into four categories to allow jumping directly to the category where options need to be set. The categories are: various, layout, display/data andmutation.
The output parameter prompts are also skipped if the ``forward only'' option for 2d regular CA was selected in the wiring prompt #10.3.1. The following reminder is displayed in a top right window,
2d CA (36 x 36), forward only, return to continue: (values shown are examples)
