Integrating short url config to the installer has been on my todo list for
a long time.
Dan: would you be interested in putting this into the installer sometime in
the future?

I think the tool is great!
Would it be possible to house on labs or toolserver? My only hesitation
in linking to it is then we're dependent on Redwerks generosity in hosting.
I think we should leave due credit to them and such in place.

does not know about URL rewriting and has more important things to do
than figuring it out. I have seen such cases in small company.
That's not really even an advantage. That's just not knowing how to
configure your own software.
The point is moot anyways, because the goal of
the Short URL building
tool is to make it so that you don't need to know.
You just tell it where your wiki is. Tell it what
path you want. And
it'll guess your server setup, environment, and generate the
config you
need.
You just then setup that config and poof.
