`ps`: command column could have more space

[naksyl]

Comparing to posix win32 executables tends to have longer names. Acceptable solutions:

• doubling the width should be enough
• apply fit terminal width strategy - as upstream do
• hardcode line width to 80

$ ps -o comm | grep -v 'exe$' | awk 'length() >= 15' | sort | uniq

Sounds reasonable. I've increased the buffer to 32 characters.

• Upstream BusyBox is limited to 16 characters because that's what Linux reports (for example, in /proc/<PID>/comm).
• There are two fields that have the COMMAND header: comm and args. When ps is run without the -o option it displays args. This isn't truncated, but on Windows it usually displays the same value as comm.
• Using 32 characters for comm might confuse scripts that try to parse the output of ps. Such scripts are likely to be non-portable so this shouldn't be too big a problem. If necessary ps could be made to truncate the comm output at 16 characters while still displaying 32 for args.

You know where to find the prereleases, I expect.

Yes, actually I am trying to write a script which replace running busybox (old trick with rename exe + exec not sure if it can work yet) with bleeding edge - kind of busybox --update
