Magic Mouse port - gestures and scrolling #51

Description

@edge261

Hi there.

I used Magic Utilities for a good amount of time, however, open source alternatives are always better.

I was wondering... and actually I proposed this to the developer of that app a long time ago... since the magic mouse supports multitouch, if there's a way to trick Windows to think that the magic mouse is also a trackpad.

The thing is that Windows handles scrolling differently in trackpad than mouse wheel, and the scrolling using the magic mouse could be as good as using a trackpad without modifying the system or installing mods, just the driver itself.

it would use the native physics and smoothness of the windows scrolling for trackpads, but in the mouse.

Not sure if it's possible, not sure if it is allowed to post this request here... but here I am trying it.

edit: I just realized that someone already did it https://github.com/wotkosky/magic-mouse-for-windows

maybe, it could be helpful to get the driver signed. Again, apologies if i'm overstepping.
