How do I turn on abbrevs by default just in mode MYMODE?
========================================================

   Put this in your `.emacs' file:

     (condition-case ()
        (quietly-read-abbrev-file)
       (file-error nil))
     
     (add-hook 'MYMODE-mode-hook
               (lambda ()
                (setq abbrev-mode t)))
