Thanks for the script, it's useful. Now i can activate night light just pressing Super+N. Instead using .sh filetype, i chmod +x the file moved it to custom folder in ~/.local/share/myscript create symlink of the file to /usr/local/bin and name it tooglens, set key shortcut on gnome setting to Ctrl+Super+N, modify the shortcut key using dconf editor to Super+N and voila.
