Multi Line Text Messaging Input Box

This past weekend I was looking around for upgrades, hacks, software, etc. I found a post somewhere that said you could expand the text messaging input area to be larger, thus allowing you to read the whole message you are about to send. It was a registry setting / hack. But now I can't find it. I've been looking for 2 days and I'm lost. Can anyone direct me to that hack? TIA!

Re: Multi Line Text Messaging Input Box

When I run my finger around the D pad it changes the past message font size, but not the one I am currently writing. On the current (in progress) message I can only see 1.5 lines of text in landscape and I think 1 line in portrait.

Re: Multi Line Text Messaging Input Box

Look at the bottom of the first post in this thread. It's the third from the last hack labeled:

Are there ways to enlarge the sms typing area?

Re: Multi Line Text Messaging Input Box

Yep, that was the one. Found it over in XDA as well. Just what I was looking for - I can now see a full 3 lines in either landscape or portrait. Could make it more but I think 3 is about right for SMS. Thank you!

Re: Multi Line Text Messaging Input Box

Does anyone know where the "thread_sms.html" file is exactly located. I can't find it using the search on Total Commander. The search gives me no results. Apparently, I'm not searching correctly.
