Well, editing that menu requires an xterm to open :) Sort of a vicious
circle. I could find the file and open it in MC's editor and edit there
though, I suppose. I've also managed to hose Pico by installing and
unistalling Pine (Pico is part of the Pine package). I'll have to ask
later how I might straighten out that mess. But anyway, these 2 factors
keep me pretty definitively from editing the menu in the way you've
suggested. But I'll try MC's editor: what's the name of that file, btw?
