 ## Running Makima

+There are two recommended ways to execute Makima:
 - **Run Makima as root with `sudo -E makima`.**\
 _Either `cd` into the directory of the executable and use `sudo -E ./makima`, or add Makima to a directory that's in `PATH`, possibly `/usr/bin` or `~/.local/bin` and simply use `sudo -E makima` from anywhere.\
 Note: the `-E` argument is necessary because it allows Makima to inherit your user environment instead of the root environment when running with `sudo`._
 - **Run Makima as a systemd service.**\
 _Move the executable into `/usr/bin`. Then, grab `makima.service` from this repo, edit the `User=` line with your username, make sure that the `DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS` variable is the same as your user's, and move the file into `/etc/systemd/system`, then run `systemctl daemon-reload`.\
-After this, you can start and stop Makima with `systemctl start/stop makima`, or you can enable/disable it on startup with `systemctl enable/disable makima`. If you change the config files and you want the changes to take place, restart makima with `systemctl restart makima`._

 ## Configuration
 You can find a bunch of [example config files](https://github.com/cyber-sushi/makima/tree/main/examples) on this repo, either pick one of them or create your own from scratch.\
