Kovid,

Actually the way I have it in the code is just like how there are NYT Headlines, NYT Web Edition, and NYT Today's Paper. I just added one extra option: NYT Kindle Replacement. It all remains one body of code, and kindle users can just flip the boolean to have it named correctly for them. Otherwise this is going to get messy, because when find problems with the NYT I'd like to fix them, and I will be running a my own custom version to replace the Kindle version. I'm trying to avoid code forking (the enemy of all open source), and save a headache.

I'm posting another update in a new thread, the current NYT download was missing all the updates from "DealBook" from today's paper (Sorkin's writing, which is amazing). Today my updated recipe adds two articles missing from the paper.
