By 'option group' you mean a 'choice' right? I don't think, that there is
some special tool. I'd use sed and then 'fix' the ptxconfig with
"ptxdist oldconfig < /dev/null". For a choice that would be:
1. Remove all alternatives
2. Append the option you want at the end of the file
3. Run oldconfig

Kconfig will then keep the option you added and adds the others with 'is
not set'.

This keeps the sed magic simple and still produces a valid ptxconfig.
