Description
-
The extension for the reStructuredText files are
.rstand.rest. The language identifier that has been used in VS Code by the most popular extensions associated with reStructuredText isrestructuredtext. https://github.com/vscode-restructuredtext/vscode-restructuredtext/blob/787ae75fdfa5ef40ff13daa6c15b7135efeaadbf/package.json#L126 -
It's worth saying that RST is a file format for textual data used primarily in the Python programming language. Therefore, this type of files can be associated to Sphinx, which was originally created for writing python documentation. Therefore, we could use the Sphinx.
By default, Sphinx only supports 'restructuredtext' file type.
So I think the icon could be something like the following image.
