Hi,
Thanks, but I don't think that's going to work. It doesn't look like it
does rss feeds at all and that's kind of the point of a blog. I'm
looking at a package called blosxom which works with plain text. It
looks like nanoblogger requires some html markup. If I'm doing that, I
might as well use WordPress or a CMS. The point is that I don't want to
bother with html markup. My other concern at this point is
accessibility, both in terms of the actual software (not much of an
issue because it's on the web server) and in terms of the html output
being readable with Lynx and text browsers. Blosxom seems to do what I
want while providing multiple flavours, so I can have minimal html for
Lynx, more advanced html for everyone else and rss for feed readers. It
supports static and dynamic pages. The only thing I'm unsure about is
if it does podcasts but there are many plugins. It looks a little old
though. I have both it and nanoblogger installed so I'll experiment
with both. I'm not opposed to a CMS, I just don't want something too
complex to figure out.

I think nanoblogger is exactly the package you seek.
Go to http://nanoblogger.sourceforge.net and skim the user manual.
Publishing of blog entries is accomplished via external commands (like
ftp, ssh, rsync, et cetera). Thus, the fact that you're blogging on
your own local server is irrelevant. All you need is a place to post
html content.
Nanoblogger only generates static html. Features such as reader
comments are provided by third party modules.
Blog entries are stored in plain vanilla text files, and you can edit them
with any editor! The metadata resembles MIME or HTTP headers. It
consists of "key: value" pairs. Here's a sample entry, lifted
directly from the user's manual.
