Ability to grep restricted by terminal dimensions [SOLVED]
If I grep e.g. ps aux for something, no results are found unless the terminal is physically large enough to show the text I'm grepping for. How odd!
Might it be because I use the 'most' pager? I can't think of any other reason...

add the 'ww' options to ps. that's wide and wider if im not mistaken. that will ensure you get everything for the ps command.
