We don't have environment variables to change most other setting (And no, please don't add them!), so I'm not convinced we need to add it for xconfig/menuconfig, just because you prefer xconfig. The point of having a configuration system like Kconfig is to use it. Please look at the bigger picture, thanks. -- Bye, Peter Korsgaard
