a backlight adjuster for Linux

Brita is small console program that can be used for dimming and brightening
a screen of your laptop.

I've written this program because my Chromebook doesn't like "xbacklight" method,
so brita modifies files present in sysfs. It *likely* works on other laptops and
it shouldn't be able to do any damage, but it is FLOSS - absolutely zero warranty,
but I'll be very glad if YOU make it better ;-)

================================================================================
    Build
================================================================================

    ./make
