      Hello,

      First off, thanks for making this awesome tool free and available for personal use. I've been using it and sharing with peers for many years and am a huge fan.

      I have a question about "Use Dark mode at sunset" usage. It's a great feature (particularly with SystemThemeSwitch=1), but where I live is fairly cloudy, so I like to darken my screen pretty early. I can manage screen hue with keyboard shortcuts, but the dark mode switch doesn't kick in until sunset. I've considered changing my location to be further east for an earlier sundown, but this causes issues in the early morning.

      A couple questions if anyone knows the answers:

      • Is there any way to increase or decrease daylight hours in the app (e.g., make sunrise one hour later and sunset one hour earlier)? I couldn't find any options for this. I'm no sunlight expert but I couldn't seem to find a latitude with shorter hours year-round either (I'm at ~42 N).
      • If not, is there any CLI or other API for the latest version of f.lux? It looks like v3 used to have some CLI params, but v4 may have removed them? Would love to use other automation to control this as a second option.

      Worst case, I might just disable that feature and see if I can setup custom scripts instead.

      TIA!
