Jeremy, I did some testing. This crontab entry works for me: cd ; COLUMNS=200 LINES=200 top -c -C -b -d1 -n1 >> top.list
Apparently both the columns and lines need to be specified. Mark Post -----Original Message----- From: Jeremy Warren [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 25, 2003 4:15 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Cron script redirect causing truncation I have a script which outputs top data periodically to a file using stdout top -c -C -b -d1 -n1 >> /kb/data/top/topout.$sname.txt When I run this by hand, the data in the topout file has the complete path to the running processes. When I run it via cron, everything gets truncated at 80 chars. I know this is probably some session environment variable but I can't seem to come up with the right answer in my googling...
