Dear Maintainer,

plesae see the manpage of xbacklight. Two problems.

First...

In the SYNOPSIS some options are missing:
 - time
 - steps


Second...
And a "-v" or "--version" option is completly missing. Even the "usage" output
doesn't over version information. The version number on the bottom of the
manpage is to far away.
