So all I had to do was write an applescript (called killBrightness.scpt) to kill the brightness on the macbook's screen and a shell script to call killBrightness.scpt and call this shell script in the required context. I found this free app called Control Plane which let's me set "contexts" based on whether certain devices (monitors, hard drives, etc) are plugged in, whether certain wi-fi networks are in range, etc and based on these contexts, run certain shell scripts. So I wondered if there was a way to automate the process. But being the lazy guy that I am, I hated having to manually adjust the brightness every time I un/plugged an external monitor.
This required that I kill the brightness on the macbook's screen.
Soon after doing this, I realized that it was very distracting to have the macbook's lit screen off in the corner of my eye. I ran into the same problem a while ago, and here's what I did:įirst, I mirrored the displays, as has already been suggested.
