The interesting thing about environ and cmdline is that the options there are not separated and you have to know for what you are searching In addition to what Jerry have wrote I want to clearify a few more files within a process proc directory:

exe is a link to the binary which started the process, but if the process is started for example(perl test.pl) you will see exe ponting perl and not test.pl
