I'm currently inspecting my Linux process list, trying to parse it in

I ran into an annoying issue:
The stdout display is somehow truncated (maybe a terminal length issue,

As you can see, to complete process command line is truncated.
Any clue on how to get the full version ?
If you only need it to work on Linux, you can just enumerate
/proc/[1-9]*/exe or /proc/[1-9]*/cmdline.
Or you can add -ww to "ps" to avoid truncating the output.
Note that the /proc/*/exe report the actual executable. The command line
reported by "ps" (from /proc/*/cmdline) can be modified by the program, so
it doesn't necessarily reflect the program being run.
That is what I was searching for. It's in ps man page, I don't know why
I missed it in the first place.
Thanks.
