Bah, sorry for the long winded troubleshooting reply before this one; I got 
your e-mails just after I sent.  :-P

Aaron, setting the Embedding option to 'Show file in embedded file viewer' for 
text/plain works perfectly.  I'm not sure why the setting for the entire text 
group didn't work, but it matters not now.

I hadn't recognized that Konqueror was loading the Embedded Advanced Text 
Editor, or I could have manually chose to right-click the hyperlink => 
Preview In => Embedded Advanced Text Editor.  :-P  Next time.  ;-)

Thanks for your help Neil and Aaron.

Sincerely,
Curtis
