val get_posts : ?n:int -> ?ofs:int -> string -> post list

get_posts n ofs fname fetches a deduplicated list of posts, sorted based on the date, with the lastest post appearing first. The optional argument n fetches the first n posts. By default, all the posts are fetched. ofs represents the offset into the post list. For example, get_posts 10 10 fetches the posts 10 to 20.

fname is the input file with the list of feeds. The format is:

<feed_name>|<feed_url> <feed_name>|<feed_url> ...

val prefix_of_html : html -> int -> html

prefix_of_html html n truncates the given document to n characters. The truncated document is ensured to be a well-formed docuemnt.

val mk_entries : post list -> Syndic.Atom.entry list

mk_entries posts creates a list of atom entries, which can then be used to create an atom feed that is an aggregate of the posts.
