Notepad.exe command line options

Is there a list of available command line options for notepad.exe?

I would like to use notepad in only display mode without any options, read only mode, without file options.

There is but a limited set of command line options:

/A <filename> open file as ansi
/W <filename> open file as unicode
/P <filename> print filename
/PT <filename> <printername> <driverdll> <port> print filename to designated printer

There is no switch to disable file menu functionality.
