Midnight Commander - size format


Hi!
How to set a size string format so that it will show size in megabytes + "MB"?
For example not
Code:
example.bin   |  552327 |
but
Code:
example.bin   |  0.5 MB |
?

Under Options-->Configuration, the only file size option I can find is "Use SI size units."

Apparently, that will display sizes in KBs.

There may be something deeper in some configuration file.
