Subject: [PATCH v2 1/8] kconfig: print symbol type in help text
Date: Fri, 07 May 2010 13:56:33 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4BE3AB91.80606@cn.fujitsu.com> (raw)

Randy suggested to print out the symbol type in gconfig.

Note this change does more than Randy's suggestion, that it also
affects menuconfig and "make config".

  │ Symbol: BLOCK [=y]
  │ Type  : boolean
  │ Prompt: Enable the block layer
  │   Defined at block/Kconfig:4
  │   Depends on: EMBEDDED [=n]
