I've used this info and Platypus to create an application you can just drop in your Applications directory.

Fingerworks MultiTouch Utilities

sadly the link is broken could you reshare? I know its been almost 10 years now

@MDNich It has been a while since I've used that utility, let me see if I can find a copy somewhere 🤞

Aww thank you soo much (I don’t have PPC computer anymore to put the software on, and Rosetta won’t run JNI libs for PPC. My only thus alternative is either buy an old ppc computer or get the Linux version without Java, which I am most inclined to)

from Wikipedia on Rosetta 1:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosetta_(software)

cannot run the following:
…
Bundled Java applications or Java applications with JNI libraries that cannot be translated

I think this is the right file: https://119labs-us.s3.amazonaws.com/blog-files/FingerWorks.zip

Thx, but do you have the Linux no Java version? I have the Mac one:(

I do not 😞
