Scroll Reverser has the purpose to change the direction of scrolling in Mac OS.
Macintosh's inverted scrolling can be a very annoying aspect, even for the most patient users. But, if you are one of the people bothered by this detail, you should know that there are ways to fix it.
Although Scroll Reverser has one single function, there are multiple ways in which this tool can accomplish it. For example, it can reverse scrolling both horizontally and vertically, it can reverse the trackpad and/or your mouse and even a tablet and it's compatible with OS X Tiger, Leopard, Snow Leopard and Lion. Basically, every Scroll Reverser feature is optional, including the menu bar integration, because the application is fully customizable.
Yet, keep in mind that, while using Scroll Reverser in Lion you will have to forget about launching the dictionary through the three finger tap gesture, because the first one excludes the second action.
All in all, this small and accurate application is one of the most convenient solutions for reversing Macintosh's scrolling mode to a natural state.
