Of course it is easy, both for me and you, as we do create and fix recipes for calibre, but it is almost like rocket for people not used to programming. And even for experienced people, it would be just a lot easier to be able to tune recipe with a list of checkboxes, than either
a) have recipe duplicated, altered by hand and stored in "custom" section
or
b) locate the zipped recipe bundle, unpack it, fix the recipe, and compress it back


I'm one of those people for whom this is rocket science. I'm interested in paring down the the recipes of the NYTimes, BBC news and Boston Globe. I don't want sports, style, films, and so forth, just the local, national and international news. Can someone point me to a resource that can get me started, or is this above my ability? The NYTimes recipe in particular, creates huge documents that hogs resources on my computer and K3. I don't need half of what the recipe contains.

Thanks in advance for helpful advice.
