I created a CSV file for a custom submenu in the root menu. Where do I save it and how do I add it to the Favorites section (below)? Or how do I convert the Favorites menu into a submenu?

Example of mimenu.csv

```auto
App1,app1,icon
App2,app2,icon
App3,app3,icon

```

Thanks.

Creé un csv para un submenú personalizado en el menú raíz ¿dónde lo guardo y cómo lo agrego a la sección Favoritos (abajo)? O ¿cómo convierto el menú Favoritos en submenú?  
Gracias.

Save it wherever you want. For example, in `~/.config/mabox/my-submenu.csv`

Then hook it to `~/.config/mabox/favorites.csv` this way:

```auto
My submenu,^pipe(cat ~/.config/mabox/my-submenu.csv)

```

Also maybe look at some advanced example of Left Sidepanel customization…
