set lesProcess to paragraphs of (do shell script "ps -Cx -o \"command\"")

All lignes are truncated to 79 characters, so I've tried set size of paragraph to 132, but this give me the error: "Can't set size of paragraph to 132" How can I get this informations with no truncated lines? Thank's for your help!

The problem your seeing isn't with AppleScript -- its with how the ps command works. Adding a -w will help, as with that option default terminal window size will be 132 instead of 80 columns. How to make it bigger? Afraid I don't know, but there must be some way to set the environment so ps thinks you're using a terminal wider than 132 columns.

You can give `ps` the -w flag twice; this will make it print lines as wide as necessary regardless of terminal size.

set lesProcess to paragraphs of (do shell script "ps -Cxww -o \"command\"")
