there is a problem with the use of \ratio. both parameters must be
a length.
what about \usepackage{setspace}
and than in ert \setstretch{1.5} for 4 lines per inch (as an example)

Not very intuitive for the user, but it works well.

this is a better one, but you need package fp
\LinesPerInch{3} is now a valid command. instead of package setspace
you can use the commands from the package for setstretch.
\usepackage{fp}% floating point arithmetic
\usepackage{setspace}
\def\NormLPI{6}% like singlespace
\def\myLPI{}
\def\setLPI{}
\newcommand{\LinesPerInch}[1]{%
\renewcommand\setLPI{#1}
\FPdiv\myLPI\NormLPI\setLPI
\setstretch{\myLPI}%

You don't need to use ERT. Just use the document dialog, select Spacing=Other,
and enter 1.5 in the field to the right.

Yes, that worked. What I actually needed was .9 because baselineskip for
the Courier font is 14.25pt, which is too large for the sample script.
It works if I have \usepackage{calc} in hollywood.cls

That is fine. There may be cases where someone needs to tweak a
paragraph, but I think it would pretty anal.
