fusuma works on Ubuntu 16.04 (I tried) and touchegg apparently doesn't

fusuma is configured with a text file and touchegg seems to have a GUI.

fusuma autoinstalls, but you must have Ruby (which should be there on every Ubuntu). touchegg must be compiled and the installation sequence failed for me, but as I wrote, it seems it won't work anyway on 16.04.

If you're a Ruby developer using rvm or the like, you must remember which Ruby version you installed fusuma into, or tweak its startup script to load the right one.
