Hello!

Thanks for the great and useful app.

Sorry if my question has already been.
Can I control brightness through your application using the command line (CLI)? May be Apple Script?

For example,

  • set brightness / volume
  • request current brightness / volume

Yes thank you. I have to use both applications and I find it inconvenient.

Unfortunatelly CLI control is not possible at the moment. Maybe in the future we'll do such a thing. I recommend you checking out Lunar by @alin23 as it have a CLI solution - it might better suit your needs.

I'll close this issue for now, but feel free to reply in case you have any recommendation on this or would like to contribute making CLI possible! Thank you!
