| How about a ./configure script? It just needs to ask two questions... write the answers in .config or Makefile.common or whatever suits your fancy and you're done once and for all. (26 years ago, 22-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| Menuconfig would be a great thing. Xconfig would be even better, but I agree with Markus' concern about portability. The Linux kernel distributions get around the portability by simply providing all three config tools and letting you use the most (...) (26 years ago, 22-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
