I tried importing the string module using import string but it still didn't work.

I don't know what you mean by did it give an error. I haven't seen any errors throughout any of this. Do you mean launching calibre from the cmd line with a verbose setting? Or is there a built in error messaging that I'm not seeing? Same with the printing, you say you like to " print the results when the recipe runs, then I can see if it's doing what I expect." So you simply insert print statements on the variables? I'll try that.

But it runs further without the string there and using as you suggested. However, now I have just the table of contents of rss feed but each link simply leads to:

"This article was downloaded by calibre from http://www.metronews.ca/toronto/local/article/589013--caribana-brings-the-summer-spirit-to-toronto"

Well that's one specific example, but you see what I mean. I tried inserting a print statement. I simply added print s prior to the return, but I don't see where I'm supposed to see the output.
