% OBSOLETE: Use MacDisplaySettings instead. It's faster and more reliable.
% To support old programs we have rewritten this to simply call
% MacDisplaySettings. However, it's probably best to replace your call to
% AutoBrightness by your own call to MacDisplaySettings, using what's below
% as a model. If you need AutoBrightness you probably also need more of the
% controls offered by MacDisplaySettings.
%
% AUTOBRIGHTNESS. Get and set the "Automatically adjust brightness"
% checkbox on the Mac OS X: System Preferences: Displays panel. The
% function argument "newSetting" (integer 0 or 1) indicates whether you
% want to turn the autobrightness feature on (newSetting==1) or off
% (newSetting==0). If you call without an argument (or anything other than
% 0 or 1) then nothing is changed. The current state is always reported in
% the returned oldSetting (0 or 1). The optionally returned "status" is
% always zero unless the applescript failed.
%
% HISTORY: Written by denis.pelli@nyu.edu for the Psychtoolbox, May 21,
% 2015. Incorporated into MATLAB adding untested code to specify which
% screen, by Mario Kleiner, June 1. Convert return argument from string to
% double, by Denis, June 11, 2015. Replaced by a call to the new
% MacDisplaySettings (as suggested by Mario) Denis Pelli, May 6, 2020.
