    Once in a while Trebuchet gets upgraded automatically.  Sometimes there are new features mentioned in the changelog but none of them are documented.  For example, what does this mean:  "Added: Uses Griffin, if available, to improve GUI look on Windows and Unix."  What da heck is griffin?  The only relevant info I could find about "griffin" is that it's "starkit," whatever that means.  I figured out how to download the "starkit" and execute it, but I can't find any explanation of how it works with Trebuchet.

      The Griffin patches were just to make the GUI look a bit nicer on one of the platforms, as I recall.

    Answering my own question, Griffin starkit:

    http://tcl.projectforum.com/tk/137

    It looks like the project died around 2006.

    It doesn't seem to be implemented in 1.075 anyways.
