No pictures? No snazzy banner graphics? No RSS index page?

I guess I've gotten addicted to the sound bite and making a go/no-go on whether I want to read the article at all rather than fast-forward through it.

It's been fun seeing what others think an iLiad newspaper should look like, thank you for sharing!

I can see I'll need a few command line switches I hadn't been planning on...

I've nailed the extra >'s and I'm on to sucking up the "Page M of N" links that the NY Times , and other sites, use. I really dislike it when I decide to read an article and you find it's the first page of 5 and you only have the first page.

I've also been manually building RSS files to allow me to grab up things like bus schedules and weather to bring along with me. This is turning into a very handy tool.
