Defaults for BLZ operation

You can tailor the behaviour of BLZ by changing the values of certain some special top level variables whose defaults are listed here. You can change these values in two ways:

• In your program: the changes will be temporary.
• In the defaults.py module of the BLZ package: the changes will be persistent.
