By default, xtrn_sec.js uses a dynamically generated selection list that uses the SelectItemFmt string from ctrl/text.dat.
This string (and others) can be overriden in the [xtrn_sec] section of your ctrl/modopts.ini file:

You can also override the external program menus with static (e.g. ANSI art) files. See
