* CONFIG_ prefix is not required.

* This command works. It writes informatory logs to stderr. It helps
to redirect stderr to a log file.
Enable option:
NO_HZ_FULL
NO_HZ_COMMON
TICK_ONESHOT
RCU_NOCB_CPU
VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN
VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING
CONTEXT_TRACKING_USER
CONTEXT_TRACKING
IRQ_WORK
CPU_ISOLATION

* To see enable/disable/toggle options in action, a command below
(without -c .config) could make it easier perhaps.

$ ~/config-kernel/configk -e NO_HZ_FULL=[y/n/m] <linux-directory>
| less -r

* ie. Handle files not terminating with a newline? There are not as
many such files. Besides I agree having files terminate with a newline
is good. It makes all lines/records of consistent format, otherwise
the very last line/record becomes a special case.

Thank you.
