xfdesktop  manages  the  desktop  itself  in  the  Xfce 4 Desktop Environment.  This includes drawing the
       desktop backdrop and providing a right-click applications menu and middle-click window list menu, as well
       as drawing icons on the desktop.  Only one instance of xfdesktop can be running at a time, and should  be
       started by running xfdesktop without any arguments.

xfdesktop's behavior is affected by the following environment variables.

       XDG_CONFIG_HOME
              Specifies the root for all user-specific configuration files.  If this environment variable is not
              present, it defaults to ~/.configXDG_CONFIG_DIRS
              Specifies a colon-separated list of system directories in which to search for configuration  data.
              If this environment variable is not present, it defaults to /etc/xdg

xfdesktop   searches  for  a  menu  description  file  in  $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS/menus/xfce-applications.menu.
       xfdesktop can also use a user-customized menu in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/menus/.
