Hi! I after doing some research(I've always wanted to get vi key binding
to work) I found the problem. Take out the line KeyBindings="vi", then I
think you'll be ok. It looks to me like the correct line would be
KeyBindings="viEdit", but just leave it to AbiWord. It will
automatically remember what key Binding you were in when you last used
it.
