Move the help text from CONFIG_M386 entry to the choice entry. I didn't do this automatically since often the help text has to splitted manually. It's on my TODO list, but I still hope someone else would like to do this. :) BTW menuconfig will only show the general help text. Showing the individual help text entries would require changing lxdialog, what I tried to avoid so far (so it's even lower on my TODO list). bye, Roman
