.SH DESCRIPTION
brownout adjusts the screen color temperature to the user specified permille.
This can be useful when the ambient lighting conditions will make the displayed
colors appear out of place and might induce an irritation to the perception of
the users. It depends on preferences of the user if this reduces
or increases the strain on the eyes.
.P
brownout will print the new percentage value to standard output.
.SH OPTIONS

.B \-v

.SH ARGUMENTS

.B permille
A number from 0 to 1000 that indicates how much the screen should be adjusted,
where 0 means no modification and 1000 full extend. If the number is preceded
with a plus or minus sign the currently active value is increased or decreased,
respectively.
.SH CUSTOMIZATION
brownout is customized by creating a custom config.h and (re)compiling the source
code. This keeps it simple.
