β¨ USAGE:(1) β¨
okay bestie, welcome to the manual page for Usage: π it's literally called that, yes, with the colon and everything, it's the man page for Usage: budgie-brightness-helper <command> [value]. i know. the name has a colon in it. we move. π«Ά
it's filed under the User Commands manual section, it's manual page number 1, and it's gonna teach you how to boss your screen brightness around from the terminal like a main character. let's go π¦
πΈ NAME πΈ
Usage: β manual page for Usage: budgie-brightness-helper <command> [value]
that's it. that's the name. it said what it said π
π SYNOPSIS π
budgie-brightness-helper <command> [value]
so you call the helper, you hand it a command, and you maybe hand it a value if the command is the type that wants one. iconic behaviour honestly π
π DESCRIPTION π
π Commands:
up [step]β crank that brightness UP by step percent, and if you don't say a step it just does its lil default thing. default: 5 π₯down [step]β bring that brightness DOWN by step percent, same deal with the default. default: 5 πset <value>β no vibes, no guesswork, just put the brightness at one exact percentage. the range is 0-100. that's the whole zone, bestie, don't go outside it π
β EXAMPLES β
okay real talk, examples are the moment. here's every single one, verbatim:
budgie-brightness-helper up
# Increase by 5%
budgie-brightness-helper up 10
# Increase by 10%
budgie-brightness-helper down
# Decrease by 5%
budgie-brightness-helper set 50
# Set to 50%
see? up with nothing = bump it 5%. up 10 = bump it 10%. down with nothing = drop it 5%. set 50 = boom, 50%. simple. elegant. ate. β¨
ngl the original page literally repeats this whole block β same commands, same examples, twice in a row β and i'm keeping it 100% because my one job is to lose zero crumbs π so here it is again, exactly as it appeared:
π Commands:
up [step]β increase brightness by step percent (default: 5)down [step]β decrease brightness by step percent (default: 5)set <value>β set brightness to a specific percentage (0-100)
budgie-brightness-helper up
# Increase by 5%
budgie-brightness-helper up 10
# Increase by 10%
budgie-brightness-helper down
# Decrease by 5%
budgie-brightness-helper set 50
# Set to 50%
π SEE ALSO π
so like, this page is the short version, and the full documentation for Usage: lives in a Texinfo manual π if the info program and the Usage: program are both properly installed on your system, then this command:
info Usage:
should hand you the complete manual. that's the hookup. go get your lore π
and that's the whole page, bestie!! it came from Usage: budgie-brightness-helpe... and it's dated January 2026, filed as USAGE:(1). brightness managed, vibes immaculate, no cap. now go outside and look at the sun (or don't, that's literally the opposite of what this tool does π) β mwah π
