killing speech from cli

[Zachary Kline]

Hi Danny,
    I'm not a speakup developer, so one of them should feel free to correct 
me if I'm wrong.
    However, in the version of speakup I have, 3.0.3, there isn't a way to 
do this from the CLI.
    The only way I'm aware of is to use the keyboard command to kill 
speakup--think it's the "print screen" key?
    I've just been looking around the /sys/modules/speakup/parameters 
directory and not found anything obvious.
Hope this helps,
Zack.
