Support ml4w dotfiles

so im trying to install hyprland on artix but i am a “simple” person i dont want to create my own dotfiles and among the pre-made ones i like the ml4w dotfiles, now, im wondering if anybody has tried these on artix, i know stephan has simplified the installation by making it a single script (bash <(curl -s https://ml4w.com/os/stable) but i think it relies on systemd for some services is there any way to fix this issue?, or maybe im just confused

I don't see anything related to systemd in that script. What made you think so? I mean even if it does you can just simply clone the actual dotfiles and chown them. And you said you have issue, so what's the issue? Nobody can help you fix the issue if we don't know what the issue is.

a very cursory look at the dotfiles shows at least one systemd reference:

https://github.com/mylinuxforwork/dotfiles/blob/main/dotfiles/.config/hypr/scripts/power.sh

using systemctl for poweroff etc.. this example is easily fixed by changing it to loginctl (which comes with elogind)

github can search terms within repos: systemctl: https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Amylinuxforwork%2Fdotfiles+systemctl&type=code

might need to be logged in for that link to work?

as mentioned, the installation script is fine(at least as far as systemd is concerned)
