I'm not sure it's a good idea to run make several times just to get the ports comments. (In reply to Niclas Zeising from comment #1) Original "Install xxxx yyyy driver" in many cases mean nothing untill xxxxx googled. To reduce CPU usage it is possible to make "config-opts" target that will be only called before options show to user and move all code that generates options description to it. I don't like this, as I've stated earlier. Running make in a loop just to get descriptions for the list feels both error prone and can be resource intensive. Closing this. Plus, in this case you rarely need to stray from the defaults, I think. |
