Please
direct any inquiries to him. All I did was compile it.
LSynth is a tool which allows you to add complicated flexible
hoses, bands, chains, and treads to the LDraw files you make with
Bricksmith. This is an unofficial compile
for Mac OS X.
In the Bricksmith preferences, go to the Parts pane, then click
"Reload Parts"
Usage
Add flexible hose instructions to your LDraw file. You can
find instructions in the download, as well as a helpful example file.
Note:
To add LSynth commands
in Bricksmith, open the Model menu and hold down the option key. The
"Insert Comment" item will change to "Insert Raw Command" and you can
enter the LSynth commands in the inspector for the Raw Command. Or you
can just copy and paste the relevant samples from the LSynth example
file.
Once you have the commands in your file, save it, then run the LSynth
program and follow the instructions.
Note:
LSynth will capitalize everything in your file (like all the model
names). To avoid this, I recommend creating your flexible items in a
separate file, LSynthing that, then dragging the resulting model back
into your original file.

LSynth has also been ported to Mac OS X by Jim DeVona.
You can see his different take on the application here. You might find
it more convenient.
