I installed SIMBL and GreaseKit, but the menu item does not appear in
Safari. What am I missing?

Here's what I did:
1) Installed SIMBL
2) Copied GreaseKit.bundle from the .dmg to my ~/Library/Application
Support/SIMBL/Plugins/ directory
3) Restarted Safari

Other information:
GreaseKit version: 1.7
SIMBL version: 0.8.2
Safari version: 4.04
OS X version: 10.5.8

# here's what i've got after the installation:

$ ls /Library/InputManagers/SIMBL
Info SIMBL.bundle

$ ls ~/Library/Application\ Support/SIMBL/Plugins/
GreaseKit.bundle

Thanks so much for the help!

Fixed by using the version compiled here: http://code.google.com/p/greasekit/issues/detail?id=38#c19

Apparently 1.7 was compiled specifically for 64-bit SIMBL and doesn't
work under 32-bit.

That worked like a charm, thanks.
