:Hello all, 
:	I'm writing a test tool in python and I select pygtk to buil the UI.
:Now, I have a question about internationalization: how can I display 
:Chinese on pygtk's label?
:	Thanks ahead!

I recently was trying to do the same thing with some French letters.
Are you planning to use Unicode?
I found, here:
http://www.unicode.org/charts/
That the latin-1 shows, for example, Ç with a code of 00C7

In Python, I can do this:
>>> print '\xC7'
Ç
>>> 

To get the character displayed.

So, find the Unicode codings for the characters you want, and print them
like above??

I haven't worked with the Chinese charset, only a few simple French
letters, so I'm not sure this is 100% applicable for your case. But
maybe it will get you started in the right direction?
