The physics screen has a documented "setSpin" method

http://polycode.org/docs/physics2d/class_polycode_1_1_physics_screen.html
setSpin (ScreenEntity *ent, Number spin)
Sets the spin of an entity.

But . . . what does it *do*? I mean, what is "Spin"? It is not a concept discussed in the box2d manual. Is "spin" angular momentum? Is it angular velocity? I cannot possibly use the method without knowing its meaning and units...
