Description

This command assigns an OutputDestination to a ScheduledOutput, thereby determining what happens to the data after it's been computed.

Different kinds of ScheduledOutputs require different kinds of OutputDestinations. For example, GraphicsUpdate only allows a GfxWindowDestination, which is automatically assigned by the Scheduled Output page. Generic text-based output must go to a MessageWindowStream or OutputStream destination. The OOF2 GUI will only permit appropriate assignments.
