Lamp

status-badge Crates.io

Lamp is a backlight control program written in Rust and inspired by acpibacklight.

Features

In contrast to acpilight lamp is not backwards compatible with xbacklight. It is intended to be used as a standalone replacement for new scripts.

    -t, --type <controller_type>    choose controller type [default: lin] [possible values: raw,
                                    lin, log]
    -V, --version                   Print version information
