#  /bin/ps  -axwo  'state  uid  ppid  vsz  rss pcpu ucomm command' can
(almost) do the trick:

Same output on 4-STABLE nad 5.2.1.

And  i  think  there  is no way to get command-name longer than 16
bytes. From src/bin/ps/keyword.c:

        {"command", "COMMAND", NULL, COMM|LJUST|USER, command, NULL, 16},
        {"ucomm", "UCOMM", NULL, LJUST, ucomm, NULL, MAXCOMLEN},

HTH,
