Creates a "dial"-style graphical user interface control.
Similar in operation and programming interface to Matlab's slider-style uicontrols, but moves in a rotary fashion, rather than linearly. Also different in that a dial control can take minimum and maximum values of -Inf and +Inf.
Install by putting "dial" directory on your Matlab path (do NOT add the "dial/@dial/" directory to your path).
Run the dial_demo.m program for examples of how to use dial.m.
Known bugs: dial objects sometimes very slow to appear and sluggish in response to user inputs. This seems random, and is apparently something internal to Matlab. Closing the figure and regenerating the dial object usually makes the problem go away.
