'''List possibilities? (y/n)''' - Enter 'y' to list all of the bigmaps and maplets that physically overlap with the current maplet.
 (!) Note that the overlap determinations from '''Option O.''' from the Main Menu do not affect the maps listed.

'''AUTOPICK? (y/n)''' - You have the option to let [[lithos]] autopick the maplet to load.  

The display includes these elements:

'''Column 1:''' The map name list.

'''Column 2:''' The GSD of the map in km.

'''Column 3:''' The percentage of the current maplet that is covered by the listed map.

 (!) Although it is not listed, you can also load topography from the current maplet. This is sometimes useful when zooming in or out using '''Option S. [[Change scale, qsz or orientation]]'''.
