Dim (and brighten) lights via a remote #3309
Conversation
As per chat in the Discord, these are the scripts, automations, and input_sliders to allow a light to be dimmed and brightened by holding down the down or up button on an appropriate remote. This has been extended to use input_sliders for the dim/brighten step, and for the minimum and maximum brightness levels.

For consistency, please either remove the spaces around | characters (my personal preference), or add a single space after this one.
