David,
Under Preferences, you can go to LPEX Editor and then Appearance. Here you can change the font. Per a session about WDSCi tips with Aaron Bartell, he shared that the font of Lucinda Console-regular-8 is a fine font to use to be able to see more at once.
I'm also on a 19" monitor. I don't get as many lines as Bryce, but I do see 70 lines.
Bon Chance!
-Kurt

The main advantage of RDi over PDM/SEU is in the time to
analyze a program and produce code. If you can see 86 lines
of code (in my setup) at a time in RDi(WDSC) versus only 19
in SEU then I don't know how you can ignore the productivity
gains that gives you.
Bryce, what are your preferences set at? I only have 51 lines and I haven't found another setting that is easy on the eye. My screen is only 17", I think.
Another comparaison with the number of lines : I find that greenscreeners are less likely to use long names in their code. So you tend to get a lot more comment lines, thus amplifying even more the difference. They may be lazy about writing subprocedures as that slows them down. I still sometimes use SEU for a quick look at something, but it has to be really quick because often I have to page and page before finding any code!
