"""
A simple tool for building the blog from markdown files. Uses Jinja2 for templating and
mistletoe for markdown->html generation.


Each blog file should be named `YYYY-MM-DD-Name-of-Post.md` It can have a header
with meta info:

```
title: Title in free form
date: Date in free form (if different from current date)
copyrights: Image references/links in markdown format (all on one line)
---

Here starts the main text ...

```
