Request gcode Help: filament retract at end of print

What I'd like is for the filament to retract 5mm when the print is complete. I'm never around when the print finishes and I'd like to have the filament free to remove w/o heating the nozzle if I'm so inclined.

I can't seem to find it right now, but I thought there was a place to insert the gcode into Slic3r PE. But if not I can drop it into Octoprint.
