Return Value

The result is a list of items read (with each item being a dictionary of format PySHARE_INFO_*, depending on the level parameter), the total available, and a new "resume handle". The first time you call this function, you should pass zero for the resume handle. If more data is available than what was returned, a new non-zero resume handle will be returned, which can be used to call the function again to fetch more data. This process may repeat, each time with a new resume handle, until zero is returned for the new handle, indicating all the data has been read.
