It is possible to change the keyboard bindings used by by editing your ~/.AbiSuite/AbiWord.profile file.

To enable emacs bindings, add a _custom_ section (or add the KeyBindings line to an existing _custom_ section):

	 />


To enable VI keybindings, use this line instead: 

		  KeyBindings="viEdit"

I was having the problem that changes to my AbiWord.profile kept reverting when I relaucnhed AbiWord. Following the suggestion I recieved on the #abiword channel, I deleted my AbiWord.profile and let AbiWord recreate it when it relaunched. Edits to this newly created profile were preserved, solving the problem. (Interestingly, the newly created .profile was about 1KB smaller than the .profile which was present when AbiWord was first run. This is all for AbiWord 2.2.8 on WinXP SP2.)

So, that solved the problem at least for me.

I am using AbiWord 2.6.4 on Ubuntu 8.10. After some trial and error, I got Emacs bindings to work by adding 

		  KeyBindings="emacs"

(note that you cannot include the wiki markup) and then making the file read-only 

  chmod -w ~/.AbiSuite/AbiWord.Profile

Now, I already have both GTK 

  echo 'gtk-key-theme-name = "Emacs"' > .gtkrc-2.0

and GNOME 

  gconftool-2 --set /desktop/gnome/interface/gtk_key_theme Emacs --type string

set to an Emacs theme. How can we make AbiWord pick up one (or both) of those?
