jvmtop is currently using a fixed-terminal-width of 80 characters which is a
simple and compatible approach which is also used by many unix tools.
Because of that some outputs which have a variable length (e.g. MAIN-CLASS
value) might get truncated in order to not exceed their maximum column size.
This is expected and intentionally implemented.
It would be possible to detect the current terminal width in some environments
(e.g. in an ANSI-Terminal) and hence having more space for variable-sized
columns, however, currently jvmtop does not include such a functionality.

You may want to consider. regular top, for example, displays the command in the
last column. This is similar to your main-class column. It's your only column
that is subject to massive size variability. By displaying the command in the
last column, it's easy for top to allow the command to grow to fill the
available space, even though the short name is the displayed by default. For
example:
Default top:
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
11905 jboss 20 0 1574m 60m 10m S 1.7 3.2 0:10.62 java
8532 jboss 20 0 1573m 61m 10m S 0.3 3.3 1:04.26 java
After pressing 'c' to toggle the command name / full command line:
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
11905 jboss 20 0 1574m 60m 11m S 1.3 3.2 0:12.03 java -cp
/home/jboss/bin/jvmtop.jar:/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7
3944 jboss 20 0 1613m 201m 18m S 1.0 10.7 2:59.73 java -D[Standalone] -server -XX:+UseCompressedOops -XX:+T
8532 jboss 20 0 1573m 61m 10m S 0.7 3.3 1:04.63 java -cp /home/jboss/bin/jvmtop.jar:/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7
1 root 20 0 19228 1484 1212 S 0.0 0.1 0:01.38 /sbin/init
Consoles limited to 80 character width would simply truncate what they can't
display (or you could do what the ps command does if -w is specified:

I've taken the liberty of coding a patch that adds a -w/--width flag to specify
the width of the console, so those columns may be stretched. Nowadays most
people use UI's with flexible console sizes, so this would accommodate those
people.
Importantly, the default (also minimum accepted) size is still 80, but one can
go as high as possible. The patch only affects the profiler - I didn't take
the time to work on the other screens, but that shouldn't be too much trouble.

Diego,
thank you for your patch.
I'll have a look and try to reintegrate this within the code base.
