 """Returns entries for index given by ``name``. If ``docnames`` is given, restrict to entries referring to these docnames. Retunrs tuple of ``(content, collapse)``. ``collapse`` is bool. When True, sub-entries should start collapsed for output formats that support collapsing. ``content`` is a sequence of ``(letter, entries)`` tuples. ``letter`` is the "heading" for the given ``entries``, in this case the starting letter. ``entries`` is a sequence of single entries, where a single entry is a sequence ``[name, subtype, docname, anchor, extra, qualifier, description]``. These items are: * ``name`` - name of the index entry to be displayed * ``subtype`` - sub-entry related type: * 0 - normal entry * 1 - entry with sub-entries * 2 - sub-entry * ``docname`` - docname where the entry is located * ``anchor`` - anchor for the entry within docname * ``extra`` - extra info for the entry * ``qualifier`` - qualifier for the description * ``description`` - description for the entry Qualifier and description are not rendered in some output formats.
