2)  The exact steps to reproduce (which dialog to open, what to type where, what
    buttons to click).

Please reopen the bug when you provide this information.

Resolution: INVALID → ---
Build ID: 2002101612

Steps:
1) Open preferences/Helper Applications
2) At present I have 3 entries.
   Select the second or third one.
   Bug 1: the string decribing the entry is too long
          the buttons (New Type, Edit, Remove) are outside the dialog box
   Bug 2: Reset button outside dialog box as well.
3) select the first one.
   The box is a little too wide but the buttons are visible.
   Reset button also visible

The original bug does occur now. It occured immediately after I installed the
1.3 alfa build and no helper applications were defined. I cannot remove them now
because of bug 1, so th eremainiing steps are hypothetical.

4) remove all helper applications
5) add new type. type data in the fields and press "OK".
   nothing happens.
Well, the bugs listed in step 2 are bug 138680.  Once that's fixed you should be
able to test the remaining problem...
Depends on: TruncHApps
Re: comment #3:
It is fixed now, but obviously not perfect (see bug 180942)...
But maybe it's good enough to test it now.

Re: comment #2:
In case the buttons are still not visible:
I don't know what it is like on MacOS X, but on Windows:
'Alt-E' is 'Edit' and 'Alt-R' is 'Remove'. Maybe something similar works for you
and you can do some testing with a newer build.
WorksForMe using FizzillaCFM/2002112208. The New Type dialog responds to return
and enter.
also w4m, using 2003.01.13.08 comm trunk on 10.2.3.
