You are making way too much of the claim on the website.  It claims
that it runs "on Windows," without specifying whether that means under
a Bourne shell or not.  At present, all I can tell you is that under a
Windows Command prompt, when given 0 arguments it doesn't crash.  No
idea if it'll actually do anything useful.

Andreas didn't say it works in any usable sense.  He said it gives
some kind of output.
