[mdlug] Difference between ps aux & ps auxw

[Mat Enders]

I always use ps aux I am reading a book that says to use ps auxw.  I can
not see the difference in the output.  And I can not tell what the
difference is from reading the man page.

menders-laptop menders # ps auxw | grep [U]SER
USER       PID %CPU %MEM    VSZ   RSS TTY      STAT START   TIME COMMAND
menders-laptop menders # ps aux | grep [U]SER
USER       PID %CPU %MEM    VSZ   RSS TTY      STAT START   TIME COMMAND
menders-laptop menders # man ps
