Yes and no. The SBGrid build a version of Coot-0.1 with sgi dials
enabled for Mac OS X (it may still be available on their web site).
(They gave me the interface code, but I was never able to compile it, so
it didn't make it into the main line.)
As Andreas says, a PowerMate is the way to go for now, if you have a
Mac. You can bind various rotations to generate key presses and
configure Coot to react to key presses. I believe that you can plug in
several PowerMates and use them together (not tried it myself though).
