commands can be repeated multiple times

--state

--state shows the state of a given config option:

$ scripts/config --state USB
y

options:

--file config-file   .config file to change (default .config)
--keep-case|-k       Keep next symbols' case (dont' upper-case it)

Misc

config doesn't check the validity of the .config file. This is done at next make time.

By default, config will upper-case the given symbol. Use --keep-case to keep the case of all following symbols unchanged.
