They all do since yesterday.
Just append [$e] (expand) to the key and $ENV_VARS will automatically be
expanded.
E.g. if you had:
hostname=Wantelbos
you can now use
hostname[$e]=$HOSTNAME
And $HOSTNAME will be expanded at runtime.
For completeness: You can also add [$d] (deleted) to pretend the entry was
never specified in a config file.
E.g.:
hostname[$d]
And you can add [$i] (immutable) to mark that an entry may not be modified.
Immutable and expand can be combined as [$ie] or [$ei].
E.g.:
hostname[$ie]=$HOSTNAME
Will ensure that the entry can not be modified via KConfig.
Cheers,
Waldo
