--- Comment #9 from crisb <cris at beebgames.com> ---
in dolphin my system (on both icewm which always worked and now lxqt):

right click .txt file, Open With -> List of programs displayed.

Choose 'Other...'.  

Brings up dialog 'Choose application', type 'abiword'.  Check 'Remember
application association for all files of type "plain text document", press ok.

File opens in abiword

Close dolphin and abiword, click on dolphin, double click on previous file,
opens in Abiword.

If you just choose from the list of programs and dont go to 'Other...' the file
will open in whatever you chose *that time only*.

Before the fix in my environment, lxqt failed to populate Open With so all that
happened was a blank 'Choose Application' dialog popped up and didnt save any
changes.  Icewm was always ok in this regard.  if I do:

echo $XDG_DATA_DIRS
:/usr/local/share:/usr/share

before the fix it was:
/home/crisb/.local/share:/usr/local/share:/usr/share
