SIMBL Agent.app is not started at boot/login.
After boot/login i have to manually start the agent.

versions:
SIMBL SIMBL-0.9.7a
OSX 10.6.2 (MBP 13")

workaround:
Add the agent to login-items in account preferences.

note:
i'm not sure if the agent is supposed to automatically launch (?)

Can you attach the output of:

cat /Library/LaunchAgents/net.culater.SIMBL.Agent.plist

the file /Library/LaunchAgents/net.culater.SIMBL.Agent.plist does not exsist.

however,
after analysing the 'postinstall' script, it turns out that the installer 
(postinstall script?) was hanging on wrong permissions on the plugins-directory;
/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins

after correcting permissions (as per postinstall script), the installer ran 
fine - also the launchd plist is now correctly installed in 
/Library/LaunchAgents/ 
and the agent is launched as expected.

the wrong permissions were my bad (…) i had probably changed those during my 
own SIMBL plugin-development experiments...

the permissions that were causing the installer to hang were as follows:
dr-xr-xr-x   4 arri  admin     136 Nov 13 03:44 Plugins

and corrected to:
drwxrwxr-x   4 root  admin     136 Nov 13 03:44 Plugins

appologies for reporting a non-issue.
