A right-click on the desktop backdrop opens a menu that allows you to start
some applications. Its configuration file, menu.xml, can be found under the
path $sysconfdir/xdg/xfce4/menu.xml. For binary packages, $sysconfdir is
often /etc and for source compiles, it defaults to /usr/local/etc.
While it is possible to edit the file manually, the recommended method for
editing the menu.xml file is via the Xfce 4 Menu Editor, which can be
started by running *xfce4-menueditor*, or using the "Edit desktop menu"
button available from the Menu tab of the Desktop settings dialog. The menu
editor also supports drag'n'drop from a file manager.
If you've edited the menu via *xfce4-menueditor*, the user-customized menu
file will be saved to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/xfce4/desktop/menu.xml.
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME usually defaults to ~/.config. If editing the file
manually, copying it to this location first is the preferred method.
