It can, yes. I'll make it invisible by changing the ownership:group to
just me. And I'll remove the link the next time I do something to my
front page.

No, please use William's site.
hg clone http://lwtools.projects.l-w.ca/hg/ lwtools
will create an lwtools directory on your hard drive, and
cd lwtools
make
make install
Makes it usable on my linux box. No clue about windows, don't allow it on
the premises.
