        Features:
        - Works with WAVs or MP3s (encodes WAVs to ).
        - Adds ID3 tags to the file.
        - Generates the RSS feed.
        - Creates RSS feed backups.
        
        # Usage
        1. Create a custom configuration file specifying the details of the RSS feed. See `configurationExample.conf` for an example.
        
        1. Run:
        ```bash
        penpen -c [CONFIG_FILE] [AUDIO_FILE]
        ```
          At runtime, the user will be prompted to provide the episode title and description.
        
          If a WAV file is provided, it will be encoded to MP3. ID3 tags and cover art
        will be written.
        
          If the RSS feed doesn't exist yet, a new one will be generated, otherwise
        the episode will be appended to the existing file and a backup of the feed will be generated.
        
        1. Upload the newly encoded audio file and newly generated RSS xml file to
        your hosting.
