Mmm, I'm unsure how the result is readable with the speakup screen

readability, we'll have to reject the move to rst formatting, since in
the end it's people who use the speakup screen reader who need to be
able to read this document.

Can we not have two versions? I don't have Sphinx installed (used to format
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/index.html) but converted
speakup.rst to
html5 using rst2html5.py and indeed the output is way better looking and
easier
to navigate than the txt version.
And anyway can we just provide a link to the web page that will be built
from the rst file? I think it should be accessible in graphical web
browsers as
in console ones (I tried using links, lynx and w3m).
As an aside the document still states:
Speakup does NOT support usb connections!
Is it still true? PS I widely prefer the asciidoc/asciidoctor format
than rst,
but the choice has been done for the Linux Kernel documentation, I know...
