Modules

Every functionality in clight is achieved through a "module". An inter-modules dependencies system has been created ad-hoc to ease development of such modules.
This way, it does not matter modules' init calls sorting; moreover, each module can be easily disabled if not needed/desired.

Default Enabled Modules

By default Clight enables all its functions, fallbacking to disable them where they are not supported. This means that these features are all enabled by default:

• BRIGHTNESS: to make webcam captures and change screen backlight level to match ambient brightness
• KEYBOARD: to manage keyboard backlight based on ambient brightess
• GAMMA: to change screen temperature based on current time of day
• DIMMER: to dim screen after a certain idle time
• DPMS: to switch off screen after a certain idle time
• SCREEN: to compute screen-emitted brightness and compensate for it. Enabled by default only on AC
