2019-10-10Make 13.1.0 releasev13.1.0Ulf Magnusson
- Commit e016deb ("Convert standard_kconfig() to argparse for better feedback") improves feedback from the tools and makes their help texts easier to find - Commit 0f56dd9 ("guiconfig: Check for visible nodes before turning off show-all in full-tree mode") fixes an obscure bug in show-all mode in guiconfig
2019-10-10Convert standard_kconfig() to argparse for better feedbackUlf Magnusson
Stuff like this is not the pinnacle of helpful design, and hides that the commands actually have long help texts (that can be viewed with pydoc): $ ./menuconfig.py --help [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '--help' Fix it by converting standard_kconfig() to argparse, and add a 'description' argument to it for the command-specific help text. --help now shows the same help text shown by pydoc, and some other error messages are improved as well. Also fix some copy-paste errors and outdated paths in the help texts for the all*config commands.
2019-10-05Mention that menuconfig shows windows-curses hint in READMEUlf Magnusson
2019-10-05Make 13.0.0 release (with Windows packaging change)v13.0.0Ulf Magnusson
Adds commit 21b4c1e ("Do not automatically install windows-curses on Windows"), which fixes installation on MSYS2. See that commit for an explanation, and this issue: https://github.com/ulfalizer/Kconfiglib/issues/77 Also adds commit 72e3d20 ("menuconfig: Give hint when 'curses' can't be imported on Windows"), to make it easy for users to know what to do if stuff breaks. Sorry if this change caused problems!
2019-10-05Do not automatically install windows-curses on WindowsUlf Magnusson
It breaks installation with pip on MSYS2, and Kconfiglib can still be useful without the terminal menuconfig. Unfortunately, MSYS2 seems tricky to identify via environment markers (https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0508/#environment-markers). This has breakage/annoyance potential, as windows-curses now needs to be installed manually. The major Kconfiglib version will be increased. Sorry if this change caused problems! Fixes: #77
2019-10-05Mention that the header is sorted by definition locationUlf Magnusson
Handy to know.

2019-08-03Fix duplicated label names in READMEUlf Magnusson
Made PyPI complain.
2019-07-13Fix kernel Kconfig doc linksUlf Magnusson
They were converted to RST. Link to rendered versions.
2019-07-13Explain why 'option env' is still supportedUlf Magnusson
It's mostly to stay compatible with older Linux kernels. Hence why Kconfiglib doesn't try to be more compatible than what's needed for those.
2019-07-04Link syzkaller script as exampleUlf Magnusson
2019-07-04Remove note about test suite failures with old buggy C toolsUlf Magnusson

2019-06-06Make 12.2.0 releasev12.2.0Ulf Magnusson
Do the opposite of what other people are doing and make menuconfig.py Python 2-compatible.
