Description: X11 set screen color temperature
xsct is a small C program to change the screen color temperature. It
can be used to reduce or increase the amount of blue light produced
by the screen.
.
The xsct tool sets the color temperature of the screen via xrandr like
redshift. Unlike redshift, it is only 80 lines of C and will not change
the screen temperature automatically.
