ive always wondered about this but never got around to asking ;)
is the help text on the top level choice supposed to be usable ? for example:
choice
prompt you [may] have a choice
default YES
help
This help text is never viewable :(
config YES
bool yes
help
This help text is viewable when yes is selected.
config NO
bool no
help
This help text is viewable when no is selected.
endchoice
if you highlight the you [may] have a choice and query help, you get
no output ... but if you go into the choice selection and query help
on the options, you can view the help text for those individual ones.
generally i like to put an overview in the choice help and explain
each option in depth in the individual choices.
It is a menuconfig limitation. xconfig shows the helptext as one
would expect it to do.
See attached screenshot.
