 +The preperiodic orbit is a portion of a periodic orbit, so I haven'​t really counted it as a separate solution type.
 You specify which kind of solution to find with the <​code>​ -eqb, -orb, -xrel, -zrel</​code>​ options. The symmetry σ for the relative equilibrium and relative periodic orbit solutions involves unknown phase shifts (translations) in //x//, //z//, or both //x,z//, depending on the symmetry of the initial guess //u//, and you specify which to treat as unknowns by using the ''​-xrel''​ and ''​-zrel''​ options.
