Install Greasemonkey Scripts in Safari with GreaseKit
Posted by Adam Pash at 8:00 AM on November 15, 2007
Mac users: Web site Simplehelp steps through how to run Greasemonkey user scripts in Safari with free tools SIMBL (a patching tool for Cocoa apps) and GreaseKit (previously posted as Creammonkey). Unfortunately not every Greasemonkey script will work with GreaseKit (though the project appears to be striving toward that end), and my favourite Greasemonkey script, previously mentioned Gmail Macros, doesn't work with it yet, but most scripts should work. Hopefully in time Safari addicts can take advantage of all of the Greasemonkey user scripts that add so much to Firefox.

This is great! However, someone should gather a list of compatible scripts, or at least tag those on userscripts.org with GreaseKit tag or something.
Anyone up to the task?

Sadly so far nearly every single script I have tried is incompatible with GreaseKit. Anything even remotely complex-looking is almost sure to fail.
