[PYTHON] Recevez les publications wordpress de la semaine dernière

This is a simple script for fetching a list of your posts for the last seven days, or since the previous Monday. I sometimes use this to generate weekly summary posts over on SD Japan.

It should output to .md file or something, but for now I just copy the output from terminal and bring into Textmate, rendering Markdown with Marked.

Here's the code. Feedback and improvements welcome.

(I'm a beginner programmer, so this code is very ugly and really sucks. I'm mostly just testing out Kobito/Qiita here.)
