>Is there a way to make rtf the default format for saving?

I have a related issue I'd like advice on:  A friend sends me a MS Word 
file as part of a joint project.  Naturally I open it in ABIWord and start 
making changes.  But, because I'm a responsible computer user, I like to 
save very frequently.  Usually I hit Cntrl-S every couple of 
sentences.  The trouble is that, since the document is in .doc format, 
every time I do this it pops up a window asking me what format I want to 
save the file in, and I have to reach over to my mouse and click through a 
couple of dialogue boxes asking me if I _really, really_ want to save this 
as an MSWord file. :) Is there any setting I can use to get it to just save 
in whatever format the file's already in?
