Creating a RSS/Atom link in blog layout

I would like to be able to modify a template overide to include a "link" to the relevant rss or atom feed for that page. In Section or Category blog view J! is already creating a feed link for both formats but I would like to implement a "feed" icon as part of the blog layout so that users who aren't aware of feeds can subscribe to it.

I am essentially looking to use the function which renders the link in the array that is used in the head renderer class. I have been looking around API and trying to decipher the com_content component but can't find where this is set?

i essentially need to be able to do an echo somewhere in the template overide and i'll be happy

Any help appreciated!

Jon.

OK, I've been a complete and utter idiot - I needed to do what the syndicate module does... whoops. I'll be off to go and see how that works then....
