Exporting to Atom generates an HTML file

Bug reports

Good (Syndication XML)

buku -t instance:peertube -e list_of_peertube_instances.rss

Bad (HTML)

buku -t instance:peertube -e list_of_peertube_instances.atom

The expected result for .atom should be the same (i.e. XML syndication feed), not HTML.

Not a bug: this extension is not listed as supported in the first place.

I suppose you can change this into a feature request ("Support .atom as export extension"), and/or implement it yourself (just make sure to update all docs accordingly).

I know, that it is not an actual "bug".

And I know it requires only adding "atom"" to the list of selection of file extensions.

Since I do not know what could be the best practice, I have decided to make this report.

I assume that this statement elif export_type in ('atom', 'rss'): should be fine.

And also assert export_type in ['markdown', 'html', 'org', 'xbel', 'atom', 'rss'].

A feature request should be presented as such, not as a bug report.

"Export type" means format, not the file extension.
