Sounds very good to me, except that you shouldnt normally use the term "ring
buffer" at all, if you dont come back to the first file, do you?
Replace it by "Use multiple files"? and perhaps add the term ring buffer to
last entry?
---Capture file(s)---------------------------------------------
File: ___________________ Browse
O Use multiple files:
 X Next capture file every 1______ kilobyte(s)
 O Next capture file every 1______ second(s)
 X Back to first file after 2______ files (Ring Buffer)
