## Backlight Breathing
In order to enable backlight breathing, the following line must be added to your config.h file.
#define BACKLIGHT_BREATHING
The following function calls are used to control the breathing effect.
* ```breathing_enable()``` - Enable the free-running breathing effect.
* ```breathing_disable()``` - Disable the free-running breathing effect immediately.
* ```breathing_self_disable()``` - Disable the free-running breathing effect after the current effect ends.
* ```breathing_toggle()``` - Toggle the free-running breathing effect.
* ```breathing_defaults()``` - Reset the speed and brightness settings of the breathing effect.
The following function calls are used to control the maximum brightness of the breathing effect.
* ```breathing_intensity_set(value)``` - Set the brightness of the breathing effect when it is at its max value.
* ```breathing_intensity_default()``` - Reset the brightness of the breathing effect to the default value based on the current backlight intensity.
The following function calls are used to control the cycling speed of the breathing effect.
* ```breathing_speed_set(value)``` - Set the speed of the breathing effect - how fast it cycles.
* ```breathing_speed_inc(value)``` - Increase the speed of the breathing effect by a fixed value.
* ```breathing_speed_dec(value)``` - Decrease the speed of the breathing effect by a fixed value.
* ```breathing_speed_default()``` - Reset the speed of the breathing effect to the default value.
The following example shows how to enable the backlight breathing effect when the FUNCTION layer macro button is pressed:
case MACRO_FUNCTION:
