Ken,
Try this option to "ps":
---
-w Use 132 columns to display information, instead of the
default
which is your window size. If the -w option is specified
more
than once, ps will use as many columns as necessary without
regard for your window size.
---
You could also try setting some sort of environment variable to change
your "window size"- I believe 80 columns is the default terminal
width...
