Many small improvements to the feed script

With the addition of the `view' command it can be used to format
sfeed text in a pipeline of unrelated utilities making it much more
useful. Formatting HTML is now done with lynx(1) instead of w3m(1)
as it produces more legible results when not in color. Additionally:

- Replace `\t' and `\n' with a single space
- Use the author field rather than filename in the `list' command
