The generator uses 3d6 in order, so these are some good rolls!
This translates fairly well to Holmes, I think apart from the saving throws and hit points on the high end (d8 vs. d6 for fighters). But a Holmes-specific generator would not be hard, I will work on that when I have some time.
Being able to open the LBB, LL, and WB generators next to each other and slam out some characters for comparison is pretty interesting. Halflings certainly get a better treatment under LL and WB.
When I was writing this one, I was going to add the 'Racial Abilities' section like in the other two generators, but then realized they would be very small sections and mostly refer to Chainmail :). The only certain thing was the better saves for Dwarves and Halflings, which I incorporated directly into the code.
That looks like exactly what I'd want from a random character generator for this edition. First click gave me a character I'd play.

There is a WhiteBox (S&W) version too!
