Sure. No problem.

One remark, though. I don't have a github account. If you or somebody else here has one, maybe it'd be a good idea to fork the theme (as a backup) and include the link to both the original and the forked version in the wiki. The theme is aimed to Inkscape. Right now it works just fine in Geany, but the author could make some change that works in Inkscape but breaks it in Geany.

Good info. If you feel like it, it would be cool to add to the wiki[0]
under the "Windows Related" howtos section (or wherever you think it
fits best).
