      Greetings, and a user's lifetime of thanks for developing f.lux.

      Some keyboards have absurdly powerful processors/firmware nowadays. I can easily click some buttons to transition my keyboard backlight between warm white and red only.

      This question has been asked before, research I did netted these posts:

      • https://forum.justgetflux.com/topic/6234/synchronizing-f-lux-and-peripheral-rgb-s?lang=en-US
      • https://forum.justgetflux.com/topic/2850/rgbw-led-strips-f-lux-and-open-source?lang=en-US

      This is obviously not possible at the moment, and as far as I can tell f.lux isn't open source, so I can't grab a copy of the source and start testing myself.

      The short of it is that I was wondering how I could contribute control of keyboard backlights to the application. I'd like to keep my backlight a typical white during the day, and move to red as f.lux moves between sleep/non-sleep colors.

        @password you could try using our "LAN API" to post to a webserver that controls the keyboard. A simple python script could listen and f.lux would talk to it.
