Suggestion: a possible way to control RGB

Hi,

Firstly, thanks for your EFI folder! It's really happy to find someone who has the same thought of using macOS on GS65.

Currently, I'm using Askannz/msi-perkeyrgb to control RGB on Linux. Since it is written in Python, I guess that it might be possible to change it and the OC a little to make it work.
