Kenn: Please post this newer version of spintest with the moderator.
Many of of us would be interested in a program which reads
interleave directly.

Leonard: Please email me on method of converting revolutions per
track to interleave ratio (unless you have other requests,
in which case post to c.b.i.p.d.)
