    If you are using the GNOME version of AbiWord then it will be using the
    default GNOME browser - which you can configure through GNOME's control
    panel, I think.

    If you are using the GTK+ version then you can override AbiWord's current
    browser selection by setting the BROWSER environment variable, e.g.:

            BROWSER=/usr/bin/opera AbiWord
