 * Hi,
    I’d like to increase the number of rows shown in the HTML mode of the post
   edit. By default it is only 10 rows. I know I can increase it by switching to
   Visual mode and using the pull down, but when I switch back to HTML, some of 
   the formatting changes. So I need to know which file it is that I need to edit
   to change the number of rows permanently. 🙂
