Indeed.  I added ‘Show program path’ to htop years ago for that 
reason (but for Nix).  It's bound to ‘p’.  Enjoy.

I don't use top.  Perhaps it has a similar option.  If not, maybe 
upstream's willing to add one.

As this is best asked on their bug tracker, I'm closing this bug.

Kind regards,

T G-R
