Subject: [RFC] menu -> menuconfig changes
Date: Wed, 29 Jun 2005 11:50:51 +0200 (CEST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.58.0506291131320.3554@be1.lrz> (raw)
There are many submenus in the config system where the fist option
controls the availability of the remaining options. This is very
inconvenient in menuconfig, since you'll have to enter each menu
to see whether or not the corresponding subsystem is enabled.
I suggest moving the first option out of the subsystem by changing
'menu' to 'menuconfig', as demonstrated by the patch below.
