Hi Kovid,

is it possible to use web2lrf with a full feed? For example, all Feedburner feeds have <content:encoded>-tags containing the whole article. Therefore, it is unnecessary to look for a print version of the article and preprocess the HTML.

How can I get web2lrf to use the <content:encoded> instead of the article's URL?

I tried to set the "html_description" property to true and reimplement the parse_feed function to use the <content:encoded>-tag instead of <description>. This worked, but it's complicated and it's impossible to look over the articles quickly because there is no table of contents with links to the full article.
