Not so nice. /me e.g. is used to distclean, never used mrproper and distclean is a standard target in most projects, so people are probably more used to distclean than mrproper which is kernel specific. The thing to point this out is that if the help is removed the target will presumably be removed sooner or later, too. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
