Hello,
Giving a very small answer here.

Like should the tool disable
ANSI color and boldface output to avoid creating confusing output?
Screen readers just ignore colors & bold/italic :)
Thanks. :)
One thing that is important for the screen reader to know what to render
is to put the caret on the item that matters.

I have trouble with this one. Can you provide an example that would work
in the terminal or a command that does this well?
The only two examples I can come up with are either using accented
characters like combining ^ and a into â, which visually looks like
putting a "caret on the item" or underling a word with ^ symbol, which
is how modern c-compiler high lights the part of the code that is
causing issue. However, I suspect both of these are visualizations and
therefore not useful in practice. Furthermore, my web searches does not
seem to find the phrase. I end up in HTML guides or caret browsering.
None of which seem to apply to terminal command output.
Best regards,
Niels
