[pygtk] GtkDial widget (where is pygtk wrapper or port)?

You might try downloading a pre-gtk-2.0 version of PyGTK and checking to see
if it's in there.  For the most part the current PyGTK wrappers are
generated from some lisp-y interface definitions.  Take a look at
gtk/gtk.defs.  For things the .defs files can't handle, you can write a
.override file.  Look at gtk/gtkwidget.override for an example.  I don't
recall if the pre-2.0 stuff used the .defs/.override files.  If so, you
should be able to modify them slightly.  If not, they aren't that tough to
write.  I'd look at the .def file for a functionally similar widget, such as
GtkProgressBar or GtkScale.
