Hi Raphael,

The part about the non-maching regexps I
don't get, could you explain that a bit further? For now I'll simply
commit the COLUMNS=1000 fix and I'll assume that this fixes the COLUMNS
problem.

It seems really strange to me too. Because ps ax doesn't limit its output
when its ouput is piped... at least "ps ax | less" shows you the full
line.

I wonder if the bug has not been badly diagnosed.

I think you might be right... If ps ax doesn't look at columns when it's piped, I'll back out the earlier commit on this issue. We'll need to look at this more closely.

I checked: if I do "COLUMNS=70 ps ax | less" I certainly get my output cut off at 70 columns. So this may still be an issue, I'm not backing out the commit yet.

Cheers,
Bart
