[ale] Need help from cammand line and scripting gurus

[Mazukna, Thomas]

ps -eafw --width=9999

ps: illegal option -- w
ps: illegal option -- -
ps: illegal option -- w
ps: illegal option -- i
usage: ps [ -aAdeflcjLPy ] [ -o format ] [ -t termlist ]
        [ -u userlist ] [ -U userlist ] [ -G grouplist ]
        [ -p proclist ] [ -g pgrplist ] [ -s sidlist ]
  'format' is one or more of:
        user ruser group rgroup uid ruid gid rgid pid ppid pgid sid taskid
        pri opri pcpu pmem vsz rss osz nice class time etime stime
        f s c lwp nlwp psr tty addr wchan fname comm args projid project

I guess ps in sunos 5.8 has no such feature --width :(
