To save the default settings to a profile, press "s" in the simulation.
It will be saved to ./default and can be loaded by using "--profile ./default"
Use F1 in the simulation for more information about keys.
OTHER THINGS
- Make sure the retina boxes in the lower left of the window never leave the
boundaries of the window. Offscreen rendering is not supported by many
video card drivers. For some drivers vision will not work if you minimize
the window or change desktops.
