Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] qemu-options: Improve help texts for options which depend on configure
Date: Mon,  5 Sep 2011 18:13:03 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1315239183-15631-1-git-send-email-weil@mail.berlios.de> (raw)

* Replace "available only" by the more common "only available".

* Tracing options depend on the configuration of the QEMU executable,
  so clarify the help text for both options.
