Hmm, you seem to have done what is recommended in the TWiki FAQ at
http://www.abisource.com/twiki/bin/view/Abiword/FaqEditorBindings
and also in the (obsolete) static FAQ at http://www.abisource.com/support/faq/

I found this two-step instruction at http://epoxy.mrs.umn.edu/misc.html

<snip>
AbiWord is a really cool basic GUI word processor. 

One of its neat features is to use arbitrary key-bindings, including 
emacs-like and vi-like ones. Here's how to set this up. Edit your 
~/.AbiSuite/AbiWord.Profile file. Then add something like this:

        <Scheme
            name="Cool"
            KeyBindings="emacs"
            />


And then, at the beginning, find the Select tag, and modify the scheme 
attribute to refer to the new Scheme you just typed:

        <Select
            scheme="Cool"
            autosaveprefs="1"
            useenvlocale="1"
            />
</snip>

If this works, can you please update the TWiki FAQ to help other people.

Cheers - Stephen.
