Thanks for the API link Ehtyar.
When I started this, a friend suggested I look at the gamma settings of my graphics card.
However, I have my monitors color-managed, and the control panel disabled the gamma setting because of that,
so I have a suspicion that something like this would not work in my case.
Here is a much nicer version of the program.
It works with arbitrary monitor numbers, (instead of being hardcoded for my monitor sizes 8)),
and remembers dimming and show settings between launches.
