+.Dt LUXGET 3
+.Os
+.Sh NAME
+.Nm luxget ,
+.Nm luxmax ,
+.Nm luxgetp
+.Nd query the current or maximum brightness of a display
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In lux.h
+.Ft int
+.Fn luxget "struct luxdisp *disp"
+.Ft int
+.Fn luxmax "struct luxdisp *disp"
+.Ft double
+.Fn luxgetp "struct luxdisp *disp"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Fn luxget
+function takes a pointer to a
+.Vt "struct luxdisp"
+structure and returns the raw brightness value of the associated display.
+If the function returns \-1 it means that an error has occured, however this is
+only possible if
+.Va disp
+has not yet been passed to any other library function that interacts with the
+current brightness level, whether that be to get the current brightness or set
+the current brightness.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn luxmax
+function behaves identically to the
+.Fn luxget
+function except it returns the maximum supported brightness of the display
+refered to by
+.Va disp .
+Additionally, this function can only error if
+.Va disp
+has not yet been used as a parameter to an invocation of either
+.Fn luxmax
+or any of the
+.Fn lux*p
+functions.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn luxgetp
+function takes a pointer to a
+.Vt "struct luxdisp"
+structure and returns the brightness of the associated display as a percentage.
+A return value of 100.0 means the display is at 100% brightness.
+If the function returns \-1 it means that an error has occured.
+Internally this function calls both
+.Fn luxget
+and
+.Fn luxmax ,
+so if both of those functions are in a state where they can no longer fail, then
+you do not need to error check this function.
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+The
+.Fn luxget
+function returns the raw brightness value of the associated display.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn luxmax
+function returns the maximum raw brightness value of the associated display.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn luxgetp
+function returns the current brightness percentage of the associated display.
+A value of 100.0 is equivalent to 100% brightness.
+.Pp
+On error, all the above functions will return \-1 and
+.Va errno
+is set to indicate the error.
+.Sh EXAMPLES
+The following program queries and prints information regarding displays current
+brightness.
+.Bd -literal -offset indent

+#include <stdio.h>
+#include <stdlib.h>

+ err(EXIT_FAILURE, "luxget");
+ if ((max = luxmax(&disp)) == -1)
+ err(EXIT_FAILURE, "luxmax");
+
+ /* Because we already passed disp to luxget() and luxmax() previously,
+ * we don't need to do error checking!

+.Sh ERRORS
+.Fn luxget ,
+.Fn luxmax ,
