    If you use third-party mice with your Mac, you've surely noticed just how useless the side buttons are. By default, they act as a sort of crippled middle click, consigned to opening new links out from under you when you least expect it.

    I have been using this app with mice from Microsoft and Logitech for several years. It mostly works. Sometimes I have to unplug/replug my mouse dongle to maintain functionality of extra buttons. I don't know if this is the fault of USBOverdrive, or MacOS.

    Modifies the Mac acceleration curve to better suit your style. Uses most of the code from MouseFix and wrapps it into a gui.
