  * '''{{{lRestart}}}''':  Should be set to {{{T}}} if you intend to restart a simulation from a Chombo file, or {{{F}}} if you intend to start the simulation from the beginning.  You must have a Chombo file in your problem's {{{out/}}} directory if you want to use this option, and it's index must match that of the {{{RestartFrame}}} variable (see below).
 
- * '''{{{RestartFrame}}}''':  The chombo frame number from which the code will restart.  In order to use this, you must have a Chombo file of the same frame number in your problem's {{{out/}}} directory (for example, {{{RestartFrame   5}}} will crash unless the file {{{out/chombo00005.hdf}}} is present).  Regardless of its value, the {{{RestartFrame}}} variable does nothing if the {{{lRestart}}} and the {{{lPostProcess}}} flag is set to {{{F}}}. To automatically restart (or postprocess) from last printed frame, set !RestartFrame to {{{-1}}}. To postprocess from frame 0, remove the frame.data from the run directory if it is present and turn lPostProcess=T and lRestart = F.

  * '''{{{start_time}}}''':  The start time in [ComputationalUnits computational units].  This quantity is used to calculate the time per frame within a simulation, and should not be changed even if you are restarting the job.
