If I'm not mistaken psi shouldn't support Windows.
You can use psutil:
http://code.google.com/p/psutil/

>>> import psutil
>>> p = psutil.Process(7055)
>>> p.cmdline
['/usr/bin/python', '-O']

I have had a look at psutil, however, this only works with Python 2.6.x and
above. We are using Python 2.5.2 and updating python could pose certain
problems. So, I'm not keep on using psutils.

Sorry. Exactly what I meant. (Should have checked for
the exact post rather than trusting to my memory).

Doesn't look as if there's anything 2.6-specific there.
Maybe the maintainer can comment, but I suspect you'd
just need to recompile and link against 2.5

psutil works on Python 2.4, 2.5 and 2.6.
If you are on Windows, you can get the precompiled binary for Python
2.5 from here:
