Transform a flat rst text file into a simple HTML diary
The input is a single, flat RST file with one section per-day. The
section must be titled with the date in YYYY-MM-DD form. There is
also a special todo section that will be placed in a collapsed,
highlighted box on the first page.
Within each section, you can use most RST constructs to style text, create lists or add links
An example input is
todo
====
* my
* todo
* list

The output is lightly styled and uses CDN versions of some common utilities such as bootstrap.
An atom feed of the entries for the latest month only is generated in atom.xml
