Thanks Dale. I imagine that's more or less the right general place,
but I don't know what to look for specifically  in there in terms of
finding the Favorites menu.

I hope it's clear what I'm asking for. It's the links to applications
that I see when I first click on the blue KDE gear and have the yellow
star active.
