A few other comments:

These help text lines should end with a period:

Pressing SpaceBar toggles between the above options

<Esc> always leaves the current window


The F-key help along the bottom line should be forced to fit
into 80 columns. F9 (exit) especially should be visible.


This F3 should be F5:

Press <Esc>, <F3> or <left-arrow> to go back one menu,


How about we make nconfig the default in linux-next
so that it will be used more?
