Preferences - Sets parameters for modes of operation.

PostScript Settings - Hardware settings for direct PostScript output.

Pen Plotter Settings - Hardware settings for the pen plotter.

Palette - Modify, save or read the RGB values for the main 16-color palette.

Read Defaults - This reads structure display parameters, mostly those in the Input2 menu, from a setup file. These will replace those currently in memory.

Save Defaults - This saves structure display parameters, mostly those in the Input2 menu, for use when inputting a new structure with the New command in the File menu, or when a standard set of parameters is desired.

Starting with ATOMS V6.3, the Read and Save Defaults options read/write a user-specific file in a platform-standard location, rather than the DEFAULTS file.

Read/Save archive SCRPTR and DEFAULTS - this reads/saves the defaults display parameters, as well as the more general parameters, from/to the DEFAULTS and SCRPTR files in the folder or directory containing the ATOMS program or executable file. See Settings, Preferences or Configuration Files.
