Re: nconfig v7

Hi,


I gave nconfig a try, and here are a few suggestive points:

- provide the same color scheme as menuconfig

- I get a visual glitch (see Exhibit A below) in General setup (patch
  slapped onto 2.6.32); the left frame part is missing.

- For symbol info, it would be cool if it wrapped the "Selected by"
  line (menuconfig also "suffers" from this), because that one can
  get exceptionally long and awkward to scroll.

- I certainly like F4-Config-ShowAll :)  but it has some glitches
  interfering near ARCH_DEFCONFIG (see Exhibit B).
