I need some help in understanding what the tasks in TODO file mean, so I will be posting my questions to this thread. For now, I wanted to ask how much of this part is still to be done: "The first issue has to do with the way speakup communicates with serial ports. Currently, we communicate directly with the hardware ports. This however conflicts with the standard serial port drivers, which poses various problems. This is also not working for modern hardware such as PCI-based serial ports. Also, there is not a way we can communicate with USB devices. The current serial port handling code is in serialio.c in this directory." Thanks, Okash [1] https://github.com/bytefire/speakup/issues
