I was against it because I don't see it as discoverable or self documenting. Looking at the config file COMPRESS= [0,1,2,3] dosen't mean much. I suppose if you could abstract that to all symbolics such that CONFIG_COMPRESS=[NONE,LZMA, NRV2B] Then that would be better. I really don't like how vague our config options are. I am IMed by people all the time asking me what config option such and such does. I have to go grep through the code to figure it all out since I can't keep them straight myself. If we could just make those option _say_ what they are doing then its much better off in the long run. Much more discoverable So if we can make =[foo,man,chu] really mean something and be discoverable then I'm all for it. -- Richard A.
