         Well, I went to it with arrow keys under nano -w; backspaced
over it; and typed in. So I now have

[root@localhost /]# cat /etc/mailcap
###
### Begin Red Hat Mailcap

audio/mod; /usr/bin/mikmod %s
# play is apparently a security hole
#audio/*; /usr/bin/play %s

image/*; gthumb %s

application/msword; abiword %s
application/pdf; evince %s
application/postscript ; evince %s

text/html; /usr/bin/htmlview %s ; copiousoutput
[root@localhost /]#

-- *with* the space between abiword and %s. So I guess I just go
looking in my email for something with a small msword file, or get
someone to send me one ...
