I have bolded the line pertaining to locally stored extensions as described in your question.

Thanks!

I was referring to installing a .dsl file I had created, not one downloaded from the MyDSL extension panel. Don't know who the other alb1954 is?

The bolded line above is the method for locally stored extensions whether you wrote them or downloaded them via a browser.

From the command prompt:
$ mydsl-load your_ext_name_here

or use the file manager emelfm and browse to the extension, click to select then click the mydsl button
