I didn't find any easy way of doing so, but I'm certainly no expert on this
-- especially since I just wrote all the menu options in the ANSI editor for
the ones I've changed around.

I wouldn't doubt that you could probably do _something_ in the .mnu files,
but if there's guidance on manually changing those (if it's even possible, as
I wouldn't be surprised if it overwrote things when adjusting the menus using
the config program), I didn't see anything on the wiki or in the whatsnew
notes.

I imagine there are somewhat kludgy ways of doing what you want, too, but I'm
not aware of anything.
