      I installed the Pixel Desktop from a Retropie 4.2.22 SD image on a Raspberry Pi 3. A desktop menu item appeared in the Ports menu in emulationstation. I didn't have any ports installed, so the Ports menu was not there before installing pixel. I'd like to move the Desktop menu item to the Retropie menu.

      I figured I could do this by copying the Desktop entry from the Ports gamelist, and adding an entry to the Retropie gamelist at /home/pi/.emulationstation/gamelists/retropie/gamelist.xml. However, there is no gamelist for Ports (I haven't installed any). So I don't know where to find the entry. I also don't know whether this approach will even work.

      Any idea if this is possible to do/whether this is the way to do it?
