The answer is "/usr/ucb/ps -auwwx".

My original question:
===============================
On SunOS 4.1.3, the "-w" option of command "ps" is described as
following
in the man page:
 
-w Use a wide output format (132 columns rather than 80);
     if repeated, that is, -ww, use arbitrarily wide output.
     This information is used to decide how much of long
     commands to print.
 
I have a process running on Solaris 2.5.1 which was started by a very
very
long command (more than 80 columns). Is there any way to see the whole
command by "ps"? The "-f" option doesn't show the whole command (80
columns maximum).
===============================

Thanks.
