Howdy,

that is probably the default setting. There is also a hidden preference that you should be able to set if you want the TeXShop value to be different from the System Wide value: e.g., to set the limit to 15 use

defaults write TeXShop NSRecentDocumentsLimit 15

which is what I use.

Good Luck,
