If '---help---' is treated as a token, then it makes sense to include '-' among the token characters. (I also rambled a bit in http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-kbuild/msg11393.html.) With that change, '-' could be removed from the parameter regex ({n}|[-/.])+ in zconf.l too. > + . { > + fprintf(stderr, > + "%s:%d:warning: ignoring unsupported character '%c'\n", > + zconf_curname(), zconf_lineno(), *yytext); > + } > \n { > BEGIN(INITIAL); > current_file->lineno++; > @@ -132,7 +140,6 @@ n [A-Za-z0-9_] > BEGIN(STRING); > } > \n BEGIN(INITIAL); current_file->lineno++; return T_EOL; > - --- /* ignore */ > ({n}|[-/.])+ { > const struct kconf_id *id = kconf_id_lookup(yytext, yyleng); > if (id && id->flags & TF_PARAM) { > -- > 1.9.1 > Cheers, Ulf -- 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/
