Just in case you run out of ideas, one thing that I would really like to have is a "Go there" button in the search results. I often want to change one symbol. The easiest way to do this (apart from editing .config directly) would be: make menuorwhateverconfig /CONFIG_FOO "Go there" enable it quit+save Or better: make menuorwhateverconfig /CONFIG_FOO "enable" OK, it's not that easy as FOO might have dependencies that even might not be fulfillable, but still, I'd like it. And there is IMHO a bug in Kconfig. If I search for "CONFIG_LL" I get a long list starting with: CPU_LLSERIAL_S3C2440_ONLY S3C_GPIO_PULL_UP S3C2440_PLL_16934400 USB_GADGET_LANGWELL MACH_ARMADILLO5X0 If I had to guess what the problem is, I'd say that kconfig strips "CONFIG_" before searching. It should better search for ^LL instead of LL, no?
