I recall those being very old classic apps. The underlying engines
have coma a long way since then. You can install both of them using i-
Installer. However, to do conversion, you then have to use the
command line latex2rtf filename.tex or rtf2latex2e filename.rtf .
There may be GUI interfaces to them. Since the command line execution
is so simple, it's hardly worth the bother. However, a droplet can
made using

Just edit one of the example scripts, and make your own droplet.
