After looking at the kwriteconfig man page, finding and then opening
the file named in the command Richard gave me,
~/.trinity/share/config/kdeglobals, I find that it has some 370 lines
each one of which contains a variable and the current option selected
for it.  It is presumably here, or in other similar files in that
config directory, where all the options selectable in the Trinity
Control Centre -- and much else besides -- are stored.

One of these variables is Browser Application where the selected
option is now !firefox-ecr, which I had to change from iceweasel using
the kwriteconfig command as Richard suggested.  The trinity control
centre however provides for changing the default browser, in TDE
Components-> Default Applications -> Web Browser.

In my original post I mentioned that when I changed browsers from
Iceweasel to Firefox-esr I also changed accordingly the option in Web
Browser; but the change had no effect. I now wonder what purpose that
option in the Control Centre really serves.

Regards, Ken
