How to get the command line of a running application?

Question

If I've got a program open, for example notepad this.txt, how can I get the full command line of this application including the arguments which was used to launch the program?

Ideally, I'd like a way which supports copying, as this command is quite long.

I found this solution:

Download Process Explorer from here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653
Run the procexp.exe file.
Locate the name of the process you want the command line of.
Right click → Properties
The command line is then shown in the "Command line:" field.
