Research direction

Start by reading issue #148 and tracing how Pygments code blocks are rendered into RSS output. Compare the generated RSS markup with the HTML and the screenshot; done means RSS readers display the code blocks correctly without relying on unavailable CSS classes.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

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?
