Kconfig: Enable usage of escape char '\' in string values #91

Open akshaim opened 4 years ago

akshaim commented 4 years ago

Kconfig does not allow the usage of escape character "\" while passing string values. For example "\n". as default resolves to n instead of " \n".

This works in strange ways and prevents me from fetching the EOL value since the serial transceiver is expecting \r , \n or \r\n depending on users input.
