The ML4W OS 2.16.1 release by Stephan Raabe introduces a standalone power menu as a separate application and repository for the Hyprland dotfiles package. Users must replace old keybindings with a new command for toggling power, but the update enhances keyboard navigation in the shutdown menu, allowing for easy selection through arrow keys and Return. The customizable configuration file enables users to personalize their menu experience, while additional minor updates include improved autostart logging and a new Keybinds button in the sidebar. This modular approach allows for independent updates and functionality, benefiting both ML4W users and those who use Hyprland without ML4W
ML4W OS 2.16.1 Release: Standalone Power Menu and Keyboard Navigation for Hyprland
ML4W OS 2.16.1, Stephan Raabe's popular Hyprland dotfiles package, splits its power menu into a standalone app and separate repository. The new ml4w-powermenu installs independently and runs through a wrapper command, meaning old qs ipc call power toggle keybindings must be swapped over. The update also adds full up/down-and-Return keyboard navigation to the shutdown menu, a customizable config.json, reorganized autostart logging, a sidebar Keybinds button, and a Walker versus Rofi launcher switch.
