Description timeless 2006-10-25 06:11:26 UTC 
gnome-system-monitor 2.14.1 with a fairly small font on a large lcd.

in the processes view, i see:
Process Name # Status  # Resident Memory # CPU Time  # Nice # ID    # Arguments
genxref      # Running # 1.1 GiB         # 385:39.02 # 16   # 29252 # /usr/bin/perl /export/home/www/html/genxref /export/home/svn/lxr-root/lxr-data/

---

to an end user, /usr/bin/perl is not an argument, it's the name of an application, everything after it are arguments.

it's true that /usr/bin/perl is in argv[0], but users don't think about it that way.

Fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major release. Thank you for your bug report.

PS: you should install libsexy, it make command line displayed as a tooltip on mouse over a process.
