It would be very handy to be able to configure the length of the captured
output.  Sometimes I have output from awk that summarizes a large amount of
problem data and it is very handy to see the entire output in the
notification email.  Making the length configurable (either globally or per
test) would be an excellent feature.

Subject: Re: Program status testing - alert contains stdout and not stderr

Monit first reads from the script's stderr, if there is nothing there _then_
it reads from stdout. Please make sure that your script really write to
stderr if needed. The output (if any) is part of the alert message and to
avoid too long messages only 255 chars are read. Maybe your script could do
some processing of the error and only write the relevant part to stderr?
