@implementation Starter

/*
Starter is the main object of Robby.  It does four things, basically:

0)  init sets up the MiscTapper
1)  appDidInit sets up the MiscVolumeLight (which is in an off-screen window)
2)  meterWillUpdateOnOwn is a delegate method of the MiscVolumeLight, which
	is called _before_ the MiscVolumeLight locks focus and redraws itself.  
	This gives Starter a chance to spit a blank app tile in the background for 
	the Volume Light to draw on top of.  If you launch Robby from the
	Workspace, this isn't necessary since the Workspace owns the app icon
	and makes sure there's a nice background for it.  But if you launch Robby
	from the Terminal (calling, say, Robby.app/Robby) then Robby owns the
	app icon and you have to draw the little beveled, shaded-gray look
	yourself.  cleanTileToWindow: does this for you.
3)  meterDidUpdate, another delegate method of MiscVolumeLight, tells Starter
    that the meter has finished drawing itself in the window.  So Starter
	then procedes to splat the resultant window image onto the app icon by
	calling windowToAppIcon:.

Modifications
January 1993:  Created original version of Robby
August 14, 1995:  Ported Robby to be a MiscKit example
