-    Convert a structured Nix attribute set into Hyprland's configuration format.
-
-    This function takes a nested attribute set and converts it into Hyprland-compatible
-    configuration syntax, supporting top, bottom, and regular command sections.
-    
-    Commands are flattened using the `flattenAttrs` function, and attributes are formatted as
-    `key = value` pairs. Lists are expanded as duplicate keys to match Hyprland's expected format.
-
-    Configuration:
-
-    * `topCommandsPrefixes` - A list of prefixes to define **top** commands (default: `["$"]`).
-    * `bottomCommandsPrefixes` - A list of prefixes to define **bottom** commands (default: `[]`).
-
-    Attention:
-
-    - The function ensures top commands appear **first** and bottom commands **last**.
-    - The generated configuration is a **single string**, suitable for writing to a config file.
-    - Lists are converted into multiple entries, ensuring compatibility with Hyprland.
-
-    # Inputs
-
-    Structured function argument:
-
-    : topCommandsPrefixes (optional, default: `["$"]`)
-      : A list of prefixes that define **top** commands. Any key starting with one of these
-        prefixes will be placed at the beginning of the configuration.
-    : bottomCommandsPrefixes (optional, default: `[]`)
-      : A list of prefixes that define **bottom** commands. Any key starting with one of these
-        prefixes will be placed at the end of the configuration.
-
-    Value:
-
-    : The attribute set to be converted to Hyprland configuration format.
