I also added a description for the 'longentry' field which was
previously undocumented!

.SH DESCRIPTION
Reads a block of data from a LIBSSH2_SFTP_HANDLE and returns file entry
information for the next entry, if any.
\fIhandle\fP - is the SFTP File Handle as returned by

@ -25,25 +31,22 @@ filename is longer than the space provided by buffer_maxlen it will be
truncated to fit.
\fIlongentry\fP - is a pointer to a pre-allocated buffer of at least
\fIlongentry_maxlen\fP bytes to read data into.
\fIlongentry_maxlen\fP bytes to read data into. The format of the `longname'
field is unspecified by SFTP protocol. It MUST be suitable for use in the
output of a directory listing command (in fact, the recommended operation for
a directory listing command is to simply display this data).
\fIlongentry_maxlen\fP - is the length of longentry in bytes. If the length
of the full directory entry is longer than the space provided by
longentry_maxlen it will be truncated to fit.
\fIlongentry_maxlen\fP - is the length of longentry in bytes. If the length of
the full directory entry is longer than the space provided by
\fIlongentry_maxlen\fP it will be truncated to fit.
\fIattrs\fP - is a pointer to LIBSSH2_SFTP_ATTRIBUTES storage to populate
statbuf style data into.
Read a block of data from a LIBSSH2_SFTP_HANDLE. This method is modeled
after the POSIX
.BR readdir(2)
however, it uses a variable sized directory entry (filename) buffer and
returns statbuf type data in the same call.
.SH RETURN VALUE
Number of bytes actually populated into buffer, or negative on failure. It
returns LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN when it would otherwise block. While
LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN is a negative number, it isn't really a failure per se.
Number of bytes actually populated into buffer (not counting the terminating
zero), or negative on failure. It returns LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN when it would
otherwise block. While LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN is a negative number, it isn't
really a failure per se.
.SH ERRORS
\fILIBSSH2_ERROR_ALLOC\fP - An internal memory allocation call failed.
