+By default users other than root are not permitted to write to `/sys/class/leds/chromeos::kbd_backlight/brightness` so we must first change the file's permissions.

+We can then use a script to incrementally increase or decrease the keyboard backlight. Save the following file to your home directory:`~/.config/kb-backlight.sh`
