What's new

  • Paper contrast, a new switch in the options card. It lifts the bottom of the gamma ramp so black comes out dark grey instead of black. Warmth was only ever half of why a screen is harder on the eyes at night than a page — the other half is contrast. Ink on paper measures around 15:1, an LCD runs 1000:1 or more, and it's pure white sitting directly against pure black that stings.

    It composes with everything else rather than taking over: warmth still tints, brightness still dims, and "zero blue, zero flicker" still wins outright. White stays white — only the floor moves, because pulling the top down is what the brightness slider already does.

Also

  • The colour maths and the sunrise/sunset schedule now have a test suite (python3 -m unittest discover -s tests -t .). It covers the failures that are quiet rather than loud: a ramp with a rounding error, a sunset computed an hour off, a coordinate whose hemisphere letter got dropped.
  • The README no longer implies there's a Windows build to download. The code is written and the packaging spec is there, but none of it has run on a Windows machine yet, and the top of the page now says so.
