I'd like to execute a script in ~ with a command that needs elevated rights. This example should suffice:
cp /etc/AAA/* /etc/BBB/
Now if that copying script would be started in, say, scripty.sh with the +x bit set, it wouldn't work.
This is actually about exchanging the xbacklight -set $brightness_night-commands like ddcutil setvcp 10 70 in a script to control screen brightness.
How can I script this to avoid entering my password each time the brightness is changed? Or would this be the easiest way still?
