Magic Lantern Bulb Ramping

I am trying to find out if bulb ramping is still available with Magic Lantern. I have the latest nightly version but nowhere can I see bulb ramping. Google and YouTube bring up a ton of stuff on it but it's all old. From what I can gather there is a new method to accomplish the task but damned if I can get specific info on it. Anyone in the know? :-(

Thanks for all this information but Bulb Ramping is not included in the newest versions. After some (OK a lot) of searching, bulb ramping has been replaced by AutoETTR along with the intervalometer and deflicker. I know that all the literature on the site still has bulb ramping listed because no one has bothered to update that portion with the exception that the link from bulb ramping text has been broken. Finding information on the "new" method, ETTR is sketchy at best but I think I have enough info to be dangerous... I mean to run some testing.

Apparently, using the ETTR method is a much better way to accomplish the task. We shall see.... :?:
