I wound up with one of these today, and I just had to mess with it enough to get chording working through the multi-touch interfaces. I have no idea how it behaves on a trackpad, but the top 20% of my magic mouse is now 3 separate buttons with reasonable tapping and chording behaviour. I can tar up my new devdraw for anyone who cares.
I had to make a small change to the build system required to make this work as well. I had to add a -F/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks to the 9l script - where's the right place to do this for a single project?

I care. I wanted the same thing. Can you send it to me? I have some friends at Apple that might be able to help.

Proper acme chords? I futzed with it before with the previous apple
mice and couldn't get it to work. This with the new multitouch mice?

Yes. It's a mod to devdraw that re-interprets mouse-down to mean "read the virtual buttons" and passes those along. The hardest part is adjusting the "landing zone" for the buttons - it turns out thirds isn't where I click :-)
It would be a good job throughout the desktop if I could figure out how to suppress delivery of the real button clicks (filter them out of the desktop event queue), but I've not managed that yet.

Don't know where the best place to do these sorts of simple mods are,
but I'd like a copy of the changes when you get the time.
