Description

As noted in #148, RSS readers don't handle code blocks correctly; most likely this is due to their reference to CSS classes that don't exist in the RSS output. Can we output a "CSS-free" version of the code blocks for RSS, or somehow include the relevant CSS in a way understood to RSS readers?
