kconfig: nconf: rewrite labels of function keys line

2013-02-09T00:42:41+00:00

>From: Roland Eggner More reasonable labels of function keys line. Rename labels and keep menu width, as required for fitting on COLUMNS=80 terminals: • s/Insts/Help 2/ • s/Config/ShowAll/ Signed-off-by: Roland Eggner Reviewed-by: "Yann E. MORIN" Signed-off-by: "Yann E. MORIN"

kconfig: nconf: rewrite help texts

2013-02-09T00:42:35+00:00

>From: Roland Eggner Rewrite all help texts. During several years lazy (incomplete) updates have left behind a rather thick layer of dust. Intentions: (1) Global help called by should document all _currently_ implemented keybindings. (2) Different help texts called by resp. should be consistent with (1) and with implementation: • on plain menu entry • in radiolist window • in input windows for text, decimal or hexadecimal values • in filename selection windows • SymSearch specific help called by followed by (3) More reasonable window titles: Rename window title s/README/Global help/ Rename variable s/nconf_readme/nconf_global_help/ Rename window title s/Instructions/Short help/ (4) Consider which hints are most useful for first-time-users.

kconfig: get CONFIG_ prefix from the environment

2012-11-20T10:20:08+00:00

Currently, the CONFIG_ prefix is hard-coded in the kconfig frontends executables. This means that two projects that use kconfig with different prefixes can not share the same kconfig frontends. Instead of hard-coding the prefix in the frontends, get it from the environment, and revert back to hard-coded value if not found. Signed-off-by: "Yann E. MORIN" Signed-off-by: Michal Marek

kconfig: remove CONFIG_ from string constants

2012-11-20T10:20:08+00:00

Having the CONFIG_ prefix in string constants gets in the way of using a run-time-defined CONFIG_ prefix. Fix that by using temp growable strings (gstr) in which we printf the text. Signed-off-by: "Yann E. MORIN" Signed-off-by: Michal Marek

menuconfig: Add jump keys to search results

2012-09-27T16:09:24+00:00

makes it possible to jump directly to the menu for a configuration entry after having searched for it with '/'. If this menu is not currently accessible we jump to the nearest accessible parent instead. After exiting this menu, the user is returned to the search results where he may jump further in or elsewhere. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Poirier Signed-off-by: Michal Marek

nconf: add u, d command keys in scroll windows

2012-07-26T10:20:46+00:00

They function just like they do in less(1). Also correct some discrepancy between the help text and the code wrt function keys. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Poirier Signed-off-by: Michal Marek

kconfig/nconf: fix compile with ncurses reentrant API

2012-07-04T16:23:48+00:00

ESCDELAY is a global variable which is replaced by getter and setter functions with NCURSES_REENTRANT. This fixes the following error: nconf.c: In function ‘main’: nconf.c:1506:2: error: lvalue required as left operand of assignment Signed-off-by: Yaakov Selkowitz Signed-off-by: Michal Marek

MCA: delete all remaining traces of microchannel bus support.

2012-05-17T23:06:13+00:00

Hardware with MCA bus is limited to 386 and 486 class machines that are now 20+ years old and typically with less than 32MB of memory. A quick search on the internet, and you see that even the MCA hobbyist/enthusiast community has lost interest in the early 2000 era and never really even moved ahead from the 2.4 kernels to the 2.6 series. This deletes anything remaining related to CONFIG_MCA from core kernel code and from the x86 architecture. There is no point in carrying this any further into the future. One complication to watch for is inadvertently scooping up stuff relating to machine check, since there is overlap in the TLA name space (e.g. arch/x86/boot/mca.c).
