Found it.

You can download it from:
  http://www.fesevur.com/downloads/weft-0.4-1.tar.bz2
  http://www.fesevur.com/downloads/weft-0.4-1-src.tar.bz2

As you can see it was developed back in 2006. It works for me just
fine. There is one known problems: it does not work properly on a UNC
styled path. At the moment I have no plans to continue developing it.
Maybe if people are interested...

Frank
