While Jérôme is correct that Abiword does use the BROWSER environment
variable, that is not usually set and isn't necessary here. It will then
fall-back to xdg-open which should open the default app that you have
set.

Title:
Abiword help always opens Epiphany instead of preferred
This happens because abiwrod uses the BROWSER environment variable.
Adding the following line to your .bashrc should fix the bug:
export BROWSER=/usr/bin/firefox

Thanks for reporting this bug. Is this still an issue for you in the
final release version of Intrepid 8.10? I have both epiphany-browser and
firefox installed, but can not reproduce this bug.
Thanks again.
