[Buildroot] [PATCH v2] Config.in: wrap to column width 72
Martin Kelly
martin at surround.io
Tue May 31 16:57:22 UTC 2016
Many lines are not correctly wrapped to 72 column width, so rewrap them.
In addition, standardize all instances of ". " to ". ".
Signed-off-by: Martin Kelly <martin at surround.io>

v2:
- Rename ". " --> ". "
