[ATM] Re: ATM Foucault software

Hi Gord

I have tried it when I built my first tester. I have not used it 
since as I have not had a mirror to test. 

Some things I found that I struggled with images need to be taken at 
accurate distances apart. 1mm or some such. My tester was not 
adequate for this. I modified it subsequently it should do better 
now. 

There is a bit of a learning curve in getting the data in but that 
could be because I never (until I get really frustrated) read the 
documentation.

I will use it when the current mirrors get to the figuring stage. 

Hope this helps

Geoff
