When you exit vlasovsoftlauncher, the light is automatically turned off. I'd prefer that

Fortunately, KevinShort wrote a "frontlight" program. Put this program into .kobo/kbmenu/tools, and put the following script (frontlight.msh) into .kobo/kbmenu/scripts:

#!/bin/sh

frontlightprg=/mnt/onboard/.kobo/kbmenu/tools/frontlight
kbmenudir=/mnt/onboard/.kobo/kbmenu

lightlevels="0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12"
moptions="$lightlevels return:arrowup.png return_home:arrowup.png"
while [ "$selection" != "EXIT" ]; do
  selection=$(sh $kbmenudir/kobomenu.sh $moptions)
  case $selection in
    return)  selection="EXIT";;
    return_home)
      selection="EXIT"
      echo "return_home"
      ;;
    *)
     $frontlightprg "$selection"
      ;;
  esac
done

If you already have the program at another folder, edit the line frontlightprg=/mnt/onboard/.kobo/kbmenu/tools/frontlight accordingly.
I don't know how many light levels there actually are. I took them to go up to 12. If you have more information, edit the line lightlevels="0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12" accordingly.
